Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Simon Darwen's performance elevates 'What Child is This?' from just another holiday mystery into an engrossing auditory adventure. His portrayal of Holmes is both sharp and warm, making for a believable sleuth who navigates his cases with grace and wit. The second case, in particular, feels like a masterclass in suspense building. However, at times the pacing can be a bit uneven, leading to moments where the plot seems to drag slightly. Nevertheless, the overall atmosphere is captivating, and Darwen's impeccable narration keeps listeners hooked until the very end.
