Enjoyable

First in War series. Next is G. H. w Red Cross, then w Marines, then w the Army. My opinion is that this portion of the G.H. series is more bold than the previous series. She & her friends face dangers from ocean, military officials & a spy ring.
Narrator progressively worse

One would think the narrator would have improved with time, but no. There are more mispronunciations in the first chapter than in some entire books. The painful Cockney -ish accent is completely incongruous with the American setting. That, coupled with the droning, monotonous delivery make what could be a light, nostalgic listen a painful slog. Fortunately, the next book in the series provides a new ghost writer and a new narrator.
