From AudioFile
This seminal English mystery is presented in an unusual, but
appropriate, manner, reflecting the episodic nature of the story.
Three actors present the story in parts, taking on separate
first-person accounts of events. All the voices are convincing,
cultured British intonations describing the events surrounding the
apparent theft of the Moonstone diamond from a country mansion.
Each voice shades the various characters featured within the
particular parts, just as the narrative offers characterizations of
the other persons without attempting an outright mimicry. The
abridgment is nicely done, too, avoiding any choppiness. D.W.
