À propos de cet audio

 When he was a kid, Teddy Wendover had an accident that left him stunted at the mental age of eight. Physically, he's six-foot-two and 28-years-old, but he acts and thinks just like a little boy. Could this big little boy be a killer?

Someone has murdered one of Oregon's congressmen, and it doesn't seem to be a coincidence that this politician led the field trip during which Teddy's accident occurred almost 20 years ago. Nor does it seem to be coincidental that the killer left rocks strewn about the murder site, rocks just like the ones Teddy plays with. The only thing that's certain is that the person who cast the first of these stones is not without sin.

Malice Prepense is the most complicated and most engrossing case yet for lawyer Barbara Holloway, the dynamic star of Death Qualified and The Best Defense.

There are certainly some issues with story structure and pacing in this Kate Wilhelm offering (way too much effort spent on a burgeoning hyperrealistic romantic relationship that takes up ½ of the novel - and drags out the start interminably), but once it gets going, Wilhelm's courtroom scripting is unsurpassed. The on-the-stand questioning and testimony is lightning-paced and captivating, in particular. The book is more than decent.

Unfortunately, reader Anna Fields drops the ball. Her diction, timbre, and cadence are professional - and her tone is better than what I heard in Book One of the 'Barbara Holloway' series of Legal Thrillers - but her voice-acting is God Awful. Some of her male character interpretations are straight-up cringe-inducing.

Altogether, this Blackstone Audio Inc. recording merits 5.5 stars out of 10. I got it for free off of the 'Plus' menu and it wasn't a complete waste of time, but paying a Credit for it would be hard to justify. Even with a different performer, there are better options available for your money (something more balanced).
