In Cry Me A River, T.R. Pearson writes of murder and its consequences in a small southern town. By book's end we of course know who done it and why, but the greatest pleasure lies in Pearson's own investigations into carnal relations, sexual jealousy, men and women, the mean, the low-down, and the dead. That he manages to do so with such winsome humor and unflagging originality is a tribute to his craft. Cry Me A River is T.R. Pearson at his finest.

Horrendous "virtual voice" narration.
Revisado: 01-26-25
This is my favorite T R Pearson book and I've waited years for it to come to Audible. I first listened to it on cassette many years ago and it was narrated by Tom Stechshulte. Why in the world would someone decide to use virtual voice when a wonderful narration was already available? The "narrator" has no feeling or cadence and is apparently unable to spot punctuation. Thankfully I didn't have to use a credit for this travesty. Hopefully there will be enough complaints regarding the virtual voice to nip this trend in the bud. Who's next Kevin Pierce? George Guidall? The Grapes of Wrath? To Kill a Mockingbird? Please Audible, no.

Joe has witnessed things that cannot be erased. A former FBI agent and Marine, his abusive childhood has left him damaged beyond repair. He has completely withdrawn from the world and earns his living rescuing girls who have been kidnapped into the sex trade. When he's hired to save the daughter of a corrupt New York senator held captive at a Manhattan brothel, he stumbles into a dangerous web of conspiracy, and he pays the price. As Joe's small web of associates are picked off one by one, he realizes that he has no choice but to take the fight to the men who want him dead.

The same, only different.

Yes, it's somewhat different from the movie. No, that's not a bad thing. Aspects of a written story often don't translate well to the screen. Shawshank Redemption, one of the greatest movies of all time, is one that comes to mind but there are too many to mention here. I really am not sure which I preferred but I'm glad I was able to enjoy "two" stories about Joe. The book fills in a few blanks also. It's a dark story about a man filled with darkness who prefers to live his life on the dark side while trying to bring light to those who have no choice about being there. If you like either the book or the movie, you'll probably like both.
