How did you prepare to narrate Then She Was Gone?
I generally just read the book, look out for any rogue accents I need to brush up on, and then hit the recording studio. It's fun to keep the preparation light so that the thrills of the narrative still translate into an energy in your voice when reading. This book record fell on my birthday and I felt deeply disturbed by the passages through which I had to give voice to a sadistic killer - my birthday dinner wasn't quite the same!
