Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Daphne Kouma's narration is a standout feature of 'Death in an English Village.' Her gentle yet authoritative voice perfectly encapsulates the serene yet slightly unsettling atmosphere of Sussex in the 1920s. The pacing is just right, building tension and intrigue without overwhelming listeners. However, some scenes could have benefited from more dynamic delivery to fully capture the mystery. Still, the overall experience is a charming and engaging journey through a world that feels both familiar and mysteriously foreign. Listeners will be eager for every twist and turn as Cressida unravels the mysteries of her village.
