Clara Haywood and August Faulkner, the Duke of Holloway, shared one waltz 10 years ago. Narrator Ashford McNab brings the listener along as Clara and August come together again. Clara runs a finishing school, which August’s sister attends. He wants to purchase Clara’s family’s shipping business and goes to the school to achieve his goal. McNab has a precise way of speaking that lends itself to the upper-class characters. And she brings the lower-class characters to life as well. As Clara and August grow closer, McNab uses a languid tone for their more intimate moments. Overall, the story and narrator provide a satisfying listening experience.
