Wonderful read!

I thoroughly enjoyed this fascinating delve into the darkness that is racial purity. it exposes the depth to which some people think that they are justified to go to uphold what at very least is a lie and at its worst is pure evil.

Great, long, languorous story

Revisado: 01-27-19

This twisting tale melds rich characters and an engaging plot that accompanies you long after listening. Not your standard story - it continues to define Tana French as one of today's best storytellers.

This is a wonderful story that peers into the hearts and relationships of 4 lost souls and a young policewoman trying to regain her soul.
The narration had just the right touch.

Get It - you'll love It!

Revisado: 04-22-18

Love and death, loyalty and betrayal set in a richly layered world where past habits and the as yet unaccustomed post-Soviet reality is entwined with CIA operatives. Enter a sensitive and gifted ballerina and a disappointing son of a monied Virginian family. This is a listening delight and an intricate tale that refuses to collapse into the predictable clicheès of lesser writers.

Great politically incorrect read.

It took a while to like John Corey but once I did this was a great listening experience. Fast paced, plenty of twists and a great narrator made me download others in the series.

Brillance after a questionable beginning

Revisado: 11-04-17

I was ready to stop listening to this book after the first 5 minutes - it seemed to be no more than the ravings of a madman. But something told me to give it a chance and soldier on. I am so happy that I did.
This is a wonderful novel that explores issues that are as relevant today as they were in 1947 when this novel was written.

Wow!

This is a well crafted book that is equally matched in the performance. Characters and plot are well defined and the geo-political backdrop is engrossing. I'll be looking for more from this author and actor.

For all those who love James Lee Burke, this book will not disappoint. In this early novel we get to know the rich characters as well as the distinctive setting which becomes another character whose presence stalks the story of ravaged childhoods and their resultant effects on the lives of the now grown adults. Burke delves beneath the surface of his characters and their lives to explore the complexities of the human heart.A wonderful read!

Hammer's voice captures the sense of place that is so important to Burke's writing.
