À propos de cet audio

“One of America’s greatest storytellers.” (Stephen King)

Neal Carey is not your usual private eye. A graduate student at Columbia University, he grew up on the streets of New York, usually on the wrong side of the law. Then he met a PI who introduced him to the Bank, an exclusive institution with a sideline in keeping its wealthy clients happy and out of trouble. They pay Neal’s college tuition, and Neal gets an education that can’t be found in any textbook, from learning how to trail a suspect to mastering the proper way to search a room.

Now it’s payback time. The Bank wants Neal to put his skills to work in finding Allie Chase, the rebellious teenage daughter of a prominent senator. The problem is that she’s gone underground in the London punk scene. To get her back, Neal has to follow her into a violent netherworld where drugs run rampant and rage is the name of the game.

"Winslow keeps his plot moving quickly despite many twists and turns." (Pittsburgh Press)

I loved the story right up to the end. Found the ending to be ok but not as interesting as the story itself. I loved the characters. I would listen to this reader reading the phone book...amazing voice and perfect intonation throughout. I usually find passages or lines in a book that don't sound right. This reader.....not once. Don Winslow books are my favourites and he never fails to secure the best readers for them. I am starting my next one today...THE FORCE.

Best reader, ever!

So does not hold up. Racism, sexism, this book has it all if you loved the 1950s and want to travel back in time. If you were born anytime this century, skip it.

Was this written in 1950?
