Wow. I'm surprised. I've listened to her narration of other books in the Maggie Hope series, and certainly did not have a negative reaction, although I prefer Donada Peters, who narrated the first book.
Duerden didn't elicit any strong opinions from me; I neither look for her narrated books nor try to avoid them.
