Aunt Jane's Nieces Abroad

Three spirited cousins set off on a summer trip that quickly turns into an unforgettable Italian adventure. Accompanied by their well‑meaning Uncle John, they leave the comfort of their New York home for the sun‑kissed coasts of Sicily, where bustling markets, historic ruins, and the looming presence of Mount Vesuvius promise excitement at every turn.

Soon the girls find themselves drawn into the lively rhythms of local life—making new friends, navigating unfamiliar customs, and encountering a mysterious mountain brigand known as Il Duca. Their curiosity leads them into a series of daring escapades that test their courage and cleverness, all while the picturesque scenery of Amalfi, Taormina, and the hidden valleys provides a vivid backdrop.

Through witty dialogue and keen observations, the story captures the thrill of youthful exploration and the charm of early‑20th‑century travel, inviting listeners to experience Italy’s beauty and intrigue alongside these intrepid young travelers.
