He allows her entry, and so begins a mystery set in unprecedented times: with the virus raging outside their home, the girl cannot be asked to leave, but what does he risk by having her stay?

Narrator very easy to listen to and managed different characters' voices clearly. I loved the intrigue, and knew there was more to the story than first appeared. Satisfying ending. A great short listen.

Caught my attention and did not disappoint!
