Listeners will be convinced that they’re listening to a full-cast performance.
Narrator January LaVoy is truly a vocal shape-shifter. She skillfully voices female and male characters of all ages and ethnicities in this thriller. A man desperately searching for his teenage daughter approaches journalist Cindy Thomas to enlist her help. Meanwhile, detective Lindsay Boxer is investigating the recent murders of several young women, leading her into the dark world of human trafficking. As with the previous books in this series, the pace is high-speed, and chapters alternate among multiple points of view. Thanks to LaVoy's ability to differentiate the numerous characters, listeners will track the plotlines as they twist and turn and as each member of the Murder Club shares their professional and personal lives.

Part of the joy of Tom Clancy novels is one's belief that the stories could come true. His latest entry stretches that some as we find international terrorists building a nuclear bomb which is used to set Americans and Russians against one another. Jay Robertson reads with a newscaster's voice, crisp and clear with a light touch of drama. However, he does little to help listeners identify Clancy's huge cast of characters, and dialects seem difficult for him as he occasionally slips in and out of character. Nonetheless, patient listeners are rewarded as the plot unfolds. This will be a welcome addition to any library justifying the price of the multi-cassettte volumes.

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.
