I really enjoyed the story. Dale, a successful portfolio manager, has to go over to France to see to the affairs of his late, estranged father. There he meets Valentin, a friend/companion to his dad. Dale finds out a whole new side to his father through Val, while Val slowly changes his opinion of Dale (from the stories told by the father). They learn to work through their differences, especially in terms of their backgrounds and past histories.
Piers Ryman made this an easy story to listen to. Loved his overall narration, particularly the accents for Val and his slightly city/snobby voice for Dale. All characters, no matter their role, had a distinct voice. Great way to enjoy the story.
