Simon Prebble was among the first narrators honored as Golden Voices in 1995. He is much loved for his narrations of historical mysteries, literary fiction such as THE REMAINS OF THE DAY by Kazuo Ishiguro, and romance titles, such as Stephanie Laurens’s Cynster series. He won an Audie Award in Romance for his narration of Laurens’s UNTAMED BRIDE. AudioFile has honored 39 of his titles with Earphones Awards.

On today’s episode, AudioFile’s Robin Whitten and host Jo Reed discuss A DIVIDED LOYALTY, Charles Todd’s newest mystery starring Inspector Rutledge. Simon Prebble is the perfect narrator for this series, as he’s so skilled at highlighting the historical details that are the hallmark of the series. Simon narrates with ease as he helps create an almost palpable atmosphere that runs through the story, set in the mysterious Avebury with its neolithic standing stones. This is the 22nd title in the series but makes for an enjoyable listen even for those new to the Inspector’s tales. Published by Harper Audio.
