This was the first audio version of the author's work I have heard. If this is a sample of the quality of editing I will steer clear of the others. Although I found the author's voice unappealing, even worse was the swallowing sounds she made when reading her novel. The editing was so poorly done that you could hear pages being turned. When she made a mistake in her reading she began the sentence over again and the mistake was not edited out. Either this was a very low budget project or quality control forgot to check this one.I have enjoyed her books in the past but next time I'll check to see who is reading it before I pluck it from the shelf.As noted in the other reviews, the book jacket's description is not actually what happened in the book. Perhaps it was written for another book or another version of this book that never got to the publisher.
