Usually love Carole Matthews but....

This story had great possibilities. Unfortunately, the personality of the heroine completely spoiled it for me. By about 1/2 way through I was listening in astonishment at her selfish idiocy. Seriously. There are two hours left, though, so maybe she'll finally use the brain I've seen glimpses of. Even her seeming generosity and care of her son is selfish. It's all about her, though I'm sure she'd be astonished to hear someone say that.

On the other hand, the narration is great!
