Golden Voice narrator Grover Gardner has 40 years of audiobook narrating experience and more than 1,200 titles to his name, with numerous Earphones and Audie Awards. Grover’s voice has been described as “sandpaper and velvet,” and he is skilled with using pitch and tone variations to evoke rather than imitate regional accents in his work. He often conveys that he’s having a jolly time recording, narrating with a smile in his voice.

AudioFile’s Michele Cobb and host Jo Reed journey to the Italian countryside with Grover’s narration of Andrea Camilleri’s THE SAFETY NET. In Commissario Montalbano’s latest adventure, listeners discover multiple mysteries, including one about the filming of a wall on the same day over years and an armed man in a middle school classroom. Gardner’s able narration brings out Montalbano’s droll sense of humor, dedicated work ethic, and humanity. Published by Blackstone Audio.
