    About this audiobook

    Marcia Brett has noticed unusual activity at the ramshackle and seemingly abandoned mansion next door: a mysterious, veiled lady is seen coming and going out the front door, a different woman is glimpsed through a shuttered window, and most mysterious of all, a pretty, blond girl is seen briefly looking forlornly out an upper window!

    Along with her best friend, Janet McNeil, the two girls are determined to learn the secrets of the old house and befriend the young girl, but once they do, the secrets only increase. The girl has no idea why she is at this house or even who the women she is living with are! Has she been kidnapped? Are they relatives? No one seems to know.

      The book was ok, the narrator sounds like she had a cold. This made it very hard to enjoy the content.

      Just listened for five minutes. The narrator sounds so bad. Like she’s had a cold.

      The story itself was interesting enough to garner 4 stars but the reading took away from it. The most worrisome thing was the file itself had several long skips about 30 seconds. Near the end while I was trying to focus on the mystery being revealed it had a couple even longer skips. I really don’t need this service for public domain recordings. More professionally read items please.
