Narrator Andrew McIntosh uses thick Scottish and Irish brogues to portray the many personalities engaged in a bombing campaign in Glasgow and its surrounding towns in a strike for independence in April 1974. Chief Detective Inspector Harry McCoy follows the scarce clues as he searches for the bombers and an AWOL American sailor from the base at Holy Loch, outside Glasgow. McIntosh's narration is steady as he describes gruesome bombing scenes. As the investigation progresses, the violence increases, and motives are revealed. McIntosh vocally captures the distrust, anger, and unquestioning loyalty that motivate the crimes against the city and government. Listeners should pay attention to the minute details, which point to the bombers and those who pull their strings.

C.J. Box writes about life in wild Wyoming, short stories of people living a rugged life by choice or by circumstance. David Chandler narrates in a rough-edged whiskey voice that suggests summer heat, bitter winters, and windswept prairies, guiding the listener through 10 adventures of men like Fish and Game Officer Joe Pickett. Chandler brings the listener into this strange world where, more often than not, men have to create their own justice. His performance of the economical stories, some rarely seen, is perfect. The tale of the frozen body of a Native American basketball player turned speed freak, her arm reaching through the ice of a lake in a final jump shot, is one of the most fascinating in the collection.

A charming story where the mystery lies less in the question of whodunit and much more in the why.
When Westminster art gallery owner Fabian Tulley is accused of selling a forged Alfred Munnings painting, he sets out to clear his name. He quickly realizes he’s been framed by a nasty client —but why? Narrator Martin Jarvis is excellent as always, though listeners might be surprised to learn Fabian is only 49 years old, given Jarvis's distinctly older-sounding delivery. The stakes rise when Fabian's other clients hear about the accusation. Then his racetrack stand is looted, he’s nearly run over, and his gallery lease is suddenly canceled. Francis drives the narrative forward while seamlessly educating listeners on the intricacies of art dealing and the world of horse racing, and Jarvis brings the expansive cast, including Tulley’s family, employees, and a new love interest, to life.
