The Year of Fog by Michelle Richmond; Unabridged MP3 Audio Book; Narrator Carrington MacDuffie

“Here is the truth, this is what I know: I was walking on the beach with Emma. It was cold and very foggy. She let go of my hand. I stopped to photograph a baby seal, then glanced up toward the Great Highway. When I looked back, she was gone.”

From this devastating moment unfolds the spellbinding story of Abby Mason—photographer, fiancée, soon-to-be stepmother—and the consequences of her greatest error. Heartbreaking, uplifting, and beautifully told, it is a riveting tale of how life can change in an instant, of the search for the truth behind a child’s disappearance, and of one woman’s unwavering faith in the redemptive power of love.

“MacDuffie’s clear vocals reflect her ability to enunciate every word, drawing listeners into this entrancing tale of heartbreak….Much of the story highlights Abby’s innermost thoughts and feelings, and the narrator executes these speech patterns with careful pauses and inflections. A richly narrated page-turner.”—Booklist

“Carrington MacDuffie reads very competently and professionally, and the first-person narrative is very effective. Recommended for popular fiction collections, especially where authors like Jodi Picoult, Elizabeth Berg, and Jacquelyn Mitchard are popular.”—Library Journal

“The book is beautifully paced—one feels Abby’s clarity of purpose from the first page.”—Publishers Weekly
