These Precious Hours

Written by Michael Corrigan

Narrated by Alex Hyde-White

Broken dreams aren't always the pits. With this collection of interconnected stories, Corrigan weaves together a narrative of love and loss as Declan Mulligan visits Ireland after the loss of his wife, Dexter Flanagan writes a love song and Sean Dineen travels to Paraguay for his son’s weeding.

"Narrator Alex Hyde-White changes locale, accent, and personality in an instant as he moves from an Idaho Shoshone reservation invaded by Mexican gangs to a Gettysburg battlefield where a relative who is a Civil War hero rests." – AudioFile
