The expert narration of Judith Boyd perfectly captures this fascinating saga of five women and one amazing serial womanizer. The story moves between Antwerp, Rio, Paris, Bath, and Venice with Boyd never missing a beat as each woman slowly comes to realize that she's been duped and must come to terms with it. Boyd is a master at quoting thoughts and even more adept at translating every emotion of the story. Boyd's skill also helps maintain clarity as the settings change. One can hardly say enough to recommend this unusual story. A perfect listen. S.G.B. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
