Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Graham Norton’s narration in 'Holding' is nothing short of magical. His voice effortlessly blends with the story, creating an immersive atmosphere that pulls you into Duneen's quiet streets and shadowy corners. The pacing is impeccable—slow enough to savor the rural landscapes but brisk enough to keep you engaged through the twists. However, while Norton’s portrayal of PJ is spot-on, his attempt at a southern accent for one of the spinster sisters feels a bit forced. Still, this minor quibble doesn’t detract from the overall listening experience, which is rich with character depth and atmospheric tension.
