Let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. These ominous words, slashed from the pages of a book of Psalms, are the last threat that the darling of London society, Sir Edward Grey, receives from his killer. Before he can show them to Nicholas Brisbane, the private inquiry agent he has retained for his protection, Sir Edward collapses and dies at his London home, in the presence of his wife, Julia, and a roomful of dinner guests.

Great Story, lacking performance

No
Would you be willing to try another one of Ellen Archer’s performances?
No
Any additional comments?
After reading the reviews, I didn't think Ellen Archer's reading could be that bad, but alas, it is very hard to get through. As a native American English speaker, this English accent sounds about as good as Keanu Reeve's attempt in Dracula. There are some very strange pronunciations and it detracts from the story, which is very sad because I did enjoy the story, but I had to try hard to concentrate on the plot and the not the performance.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
