Olivia Lockhart 16 Lighthouse Road Cedar Cove, Washington
Dear Listener, You don't know me yet, but in a few hours that's going to change. You see, I'm inviting you to my home and my town of Cedar Cove because I want you to meet my family, friends, and neighbors. Come and hear their stories - maybe even their secrets! I have to admit that my own secrets are pretty open. My marriage failed some years ago, and I have a rather...difficult relationship with my daughter, Justine. Then there's my mother, Charlotte, who has plenty of opinions and is always willing to share them. Here's an example: I'm a family court judge and she likes to drop in on my courtroom. Recently I was hearing a divorce petition. In Charlotte's view, young Cecilia and Ian Randall hadn't tried hard enough to make their marriage work - and I agreed. So I rendered my judgement: Divorce Denied. Well, you wouldn't believe the reaction! Thanks to an article by Jack Griffin, the editor of our local paper (and a man I wouldn't mind seeing more of!), everyone's talking. Cedar Cove - people love it and sometimes they leave it, but they never forget it! See you soon... Olivia
Narrator Sandra Burr immerses listeners in the lives of the inhabitants of Cedar Cove, Washington. The characters' voices come vividly to life: Cecilia's emotional tones hint at her despair at the death of her young daughter and her sorrow over her troubled marriage. Ian's clipped tones, a sharp departure from his normal silky smooth voice, reveals his anger at Cecilia's desire to divorce. Burr also capably alters her pitch for the character of Olivia's aging mother. Burr's ability to give each character a unique voice makes this production a superior audio experience. S.M.
