À propos de cet audio
2022 Kirkus Reviews Best Books of the Year, Long-listed
Tautly wound and expertly crafted, Two Nights in Lisbon is a riveting thriller about a woman under pressure, and how far she will go when everything is on the line. The audiobook is read by AudioFile Golden Voice and Audie Award winning narrator January LaVoy.
“I defy anyone to read the first twenty pages of this breakneck novel, then try to put it down for five minutes. This is smart suspense at its very best.”—#1 New York Times bestselling author John Grisham
You think you know a person . . .
Ariel Pryce wakes up in Lisbon, alone. Her husband is gone—no warning, no note, not answering his phone. Something is wrong.
She starts with hotel security, then the police, then the American embassy, at each confronting questions she can’t fully answer: What exactly is John doing in Lisbon? Why would he drag her along on his business trip? Who would want to harm him? And why does Ariel know so little about her new—much younger—husband?
The clock is ticking. Ariel is increasingly frustrated and desperate, running out of time, and the one person in the world who can help is the one person she least wants to ask.
With sparkling prose and razor-sharp insights, bestselling author Chris Pavone delivers a stunning and sophisticated international thriller that will linger long after the surprising final moment.

Just terrible.

The story is trope after trope after hackneyed trope. I couldn't understand why I found the MC so flat and one-dimensional, until I looked up the author. I rarely like women written by men, and Ariel Price is no exception. I don't get the feeling the author likes or understands women at all, frankly. If you're looking for a sensitive or even accurate portrayal of a woman who's been SA'd, this book is not it.
With regard to the performance, January LaVoy is a marvelous voice actor, but her Portuguese and Spanish accents are a swing and a miss. Basic pronunciation errors (like Suh-VEE-la instead of Seh-BEE-ya) are disappointing, especially since these are simple fixes. Namely, hire an editor who speak Spanish.
Overall, just two big thumbs down, unfortunately.
