DANGEROUS ATTACHMENTS

Dr. Sylvia Strange is a forensic psychiatrist asked to evaluate New Mexico prison inmate Lucas Watson for possible parole. A psychopathic killer who collects body parts, Watson develops a dangerous attachment to Dr. Strange, which is reminiscent of Hannibal Lecter's relationship with FBI agent Starling in Silence of the Lambs. Lindsay Crouse's performance is not quite tough enough for the rough language and tough characters, especially the male roles, and she occasionally lapses into a strange Southern accent. Her pace is perfect, however, as she methodically narrates this tale of obsession and terror, which will delight fans of the genre.

    THE TREE OF HANDS

    Novelist Benet Archdale and housemaid Carol Stratford are two young, single parents who have no reason to know each other. They become tangled in a nightmarish spiral of kidnap, fraud, family violence and death. Ruth Rendell creates psychological suspense in thrillers that are compulsively readable or, in this case, listenable. British actress Imelda Staunton's reading is perfectly paced, and the characters are well defined. You'll have a hard time turning it off.

      THE MUMMY CASE

      Emerson and Peabody are at it again! Uncovering antiquities takes a back-seat as the romantic archaeologists track down the master criminal who is stealing Egypt's ancient treasures. With the help of their precocious son, Ramses, the intrepid pair unravel this mystery in crowded bazaars, desert camps and the heart of the Black Pyramid. Barbara Rosenblat's reading fully measures up to the tale. She is a master of timing and nuance. Rosenblat's power for character interpretation has grown with each book in this amusing series. This is the best one yet.
