Boady Sanden is a lawyer with lots of baggage, and it all gets unloaded in this audiobook. What starts with a request to get a new trial for a wrongly convicted murderer and seeming clairvoyant turns into a far more complex story involving Emma, whom he has raised since her father and mother's deaths and never fully come to grips with. Delivered by a team of narrators, with Gary Tiedemann taking the lead, the book moves along quickly, always centering on Sanden and his ever-growing emotional toll. Although the other narrators, Matt Godfrey, Saskia Maarleveld, Janina Edwards, and Timothy Pabon, are all capable, they get lost a bit in the giant shadow cast by the excellent performance of Tiedemann.

by C.J. Box ; read by David Chandler ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A
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.
