Story
Since she was nine years old, Alina Dziak knew she would marry her best friend, Tomasz. Now 15 and engaged, Alina is unconcerned by reports of Nazi soldiers at the Polish border, believing her neighbors that they pose no real threat, and dreams instead of the day Tomasz returns from college in Warsaw so they can be married. But little by little, injustice by brutal injustice, the Nazi occupation takes hold, and Alina’s tiny rural village, its families, are divided by fear and hate. Then, as the fabric of their lives is slowly picked apart, Tomasz disappears.

Nick Shepherd thought he had put the past behind him until the day his estranged wife walked back into town. Intending only to help Maura through her crisis of faith, Nick finds his feelings for her never died. Now he must admit the mistakes he made and how he hurt his wife and find a way to give and receive forgiveness.

Great narration, trivial story
First off, Lisa Cordileone is such a talented narrator and this story just proves it again. Listening to books she narrates is always a pleasure.
The story, however, takes a couple of pretty serious situations and treats them with a sweet touch that really does trivialize them. While the story overall is enjoyable, it truly does a disservice to the subjects it addresses.

Is English the narrator's second language?
It was a challenge to hang in there with the narrator mispronouncing words from beginning to end. Note to narrator: "theater" is a 3 syllable word, it is a "thee-uh-tur", not a "theeter". I lost track of the crimes against the English language so I won't belabor that point. Also, I found the characters inauthentic and extremely one dimensional. Pretty painful listening.
