Synopsis

From AudioFile
Homeless old Bill lives in a boiler and speaks with a funny lisp, so naturally he's the object of much sport in the town of Lenton. But the sport turns to rage when a little girl goes missing, and it takes the open-minded kids (two boys, two girls) of "The Outfit" to prove Bill innocent and find the kidnapped child. Narrator Crane masters all the voices, throwing in a mild speech impediment for Bill and keeping it believable. Short, sweet, and easy to listen to.
