7. Maycomb Ladies
Jean Louise is left shocked after catching Atticus and Hank at a racist meeting. Read by Fenella Woolgar.

But mid-50s Alabama is not the same place where young Scout spent idyllic summers with brother Jem, and the 26-year old will be betrayed and have her trust shattered before she is able to become her own woman.
