About this listen

Oakham, near Bruton, is a tiny village by a big river without a bridge. When a man is swept away by the river an explanation has to be found. The story is relayed by the village priest, John Reve, who, in his role as confessor, is privy to a lot of information that others are not. But will he be able to explain what happened to the victim? And what will happen if he can’t?

The narrator’s voice varies in volume too much for this to be enjoyable. It’s quite loud at the start of the sentence, but the volume decreases to a whisper by the end of a sentence. This pattern is persistent. Disappointing.
