A wonderful narration by Danielle O’Farrell is given for this story, her performance is perfect for this series.

I enjoyed this short story, but didn’t really care for the narration too much. Each male voice was either too similar to another or just kind of weird sounding. The women’s voices were varied and normal sounding. The cadence was stilted as well.
The train scene was my favorite part!
