À propos de cet audio
Joe Gunther is sent to the neighboring town of Bellows Falls to investigate harassment allegations against a fellow officer. But as Gunther doggedly pursues the truth, what begins as a seemingly open-and-shut case starts to look more and more like a frame job, and he soon finds himself feeling around the edges of a statewide drug distribution network.
As always, Vermont itself is a major character in Mayor's writing, with Bellows Falls standing in for any number of slowly decaying, once-proud mill towns.
©2013 Archer Mayor (P)2017 Blackstone Audio, Inc.Widespread unemployment, drugs, teenaged pregnancy, and rampant crime burden the community with an overwhelming feeling of despair - making the vengeful duplicity & gritty violence of the mystery fit perfectly. This may be Archer Mayor's darkest story: incorporating the author's typical impeccably-researched forensics/procedures, realistic (if a little rushed) witness interviews, and well-scripted action sequences.. but this one is all about the mood. It showed me that Mayor can craft a viscerally-affecting story.
This is likely the best reading performance that I have encountered from Tom Taylorson, too. His characteristic spot-on diction/enunciation, enjoyable timbre/cadence, and cinematic voice-acting are paired with an uncommonly emotive tone that conveys fear, anger, and sadness like an Oscar-worthy on-screen portrayal. In fact, the narration alone would make this audiobook worth a listen.
Altogether, this installment in the series is (sometimes uncomfortably) emotion-laden. I rate the book an outstanding 9.5 stars out of 10. You should absolutely give it a listen.. even if Audible asks for a Credit.
