I listened to the ALC of Strangers in Time by David Baldacci and I loved it. This story is narrated by David Baldacci (the author's note); Stewart Crank; Alexandra Boulton; John Lee; Nicola F. Delgado; Matthew Lloyd Davies; Joe Pitts. This entire production was perfect. I could not imagine a better audio book. I'm not sure how much higher praise I can give other than to say, you absolutely must listen to this story. It's the story of Molly, Charlie and Ignatius Oliver; three people standing together against all the world can throw at them. And, the world does throw some horrific events their way. I love historical fiction, and David Baldacci found a way to tell a story set in London during WWII that is different than all the other London based WWII historical fiction stories. I gobbled this up. If you love coming of age stories and found family, you need to read this book. It drew me in immediately, and did not release me until the story was told. So well done. 4.25 stars.

Thank you to Hachette Audio and Net Galley for my ALC. This book releases today, April 15, 2025.
