À propos de cet audio

 Also titled The Drowning Man.

Detective Inspector Vincent Ruiz is lucky to be alive. A bullet in the leg, another through the hand, he is discovered clinging to a buoy in the River Thames, losing blood and consciousness fast. It takes six days for him to come out of his coma, and when he does, his nightmare is only just beginning. Because Vincent has no recollection of what happened, and nobody believes him.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"A thoughtful and subtle thriller, with convincing, three-dimensional characters." ( Publishers Weekly)
"In addition to delivering top-notch pacing, plot, and characters...Robotham also understands that some quests are worth any sacrifice no matter how long the odds of success may be." ( Booklist)
"Ray Lonnen's delivery is full of a snap that reflects both Ruiz's regrets as husband, father, and police officer, and his contempt for his superiors' anger when he raises doubts over a case they would prefer remain closed. Those who relish earthy accents from London's most hardscrabble sections will find plenty of entertainment in Lonnen's performance." ( AudioFile)

the narrator also does a great job.

twisty turny tale

The "Detective loses his memory" plot device has been done before, but Michael Robotham does it exceedingly well. 'Lost' presents a very good, twisty mystery involving London Detective Inspector Vincent Ruiz trying to find an abducted child who was assumed dead (and for whose murder a pedophile was convicted), after being wounded in a shootout he can't remember.
Psychologist/Sleuth Joseph O'Loughlin puts in an appearance helping his once accuser/now friend to recover his memory and solve the case.. but this is a D.I. Ruiz procedural. Fortunately, it's also a very well-contrived/well-executed whodunit (O'Loughlin fans won't be disappointed).

Narrator Ray Lonnen does an impressive job reading the book. His diction, timbre, cadence, tone, and rate of reading are spot-on. The main drawback to the performance is a dry mouth - occasional swallows and lip-smacks mar the delivery - but Lonnen's superior voice-acting nearly makes up for the deficiencies (emotive, distinctive, and largely free of affected accents). Bravo to W.F. Howes Ltd. on the casting choice and sound quality (although I recommend avoiding earbuds).

This most enjoyable mystery merits 9 stars out of 10. Do not hesitate to spend the Credit.
