When twins Greta and Feliks lose their beloved Aunt Gisela to a poisoned marzipan cake and are sent to the ill-omened Schwartzgarten Reformatory for Maladjusted Children it seems their fate is sealed... that is until they are rescued by the glamorous and wealthy Olga Van Veenen, a fabulous children's author. The two twins are grateful but something tells them that Olga's motives are not entirely genuine...

Maybe it is more the studio recording levels than the actual narrator but i feel its a bit of both. One moment its at an unbearable screech level and the next an almost inaudible whisper. Extremely frustrating and annoying thus ruining the promising story. You have to constantly adjust the volume one way or the other. Luckily for me it was part of the plus catalogue, but if I had been anyone unfortunate enough to use a credit or pay I would certainly requested a refund. Although it's a plus title, it's still a loss of time and effort and honesty pointless as you're unable to listen.

Might be a reasonably good & unusual story. Narration/sound is dire!! Foghorn shout is LOUD & low whisper will drive you bats!
