THE LAST TEMPTATION

Two plots intermingle in this complex European thriller. The first is the search for a serial killer who is killing experimental psychologists. The second seeks evidence to convict a Polish crime boss who traffics in drugs and illegal immigrants. Psychologist Tony Hill and his former partner, Detective Inspector Carol Jordan, team up with EU detectives to solve the murders and catch the criminals. Guerin Barry narrates changes in location and high-action sequences without a hitch. His German, Belgian, and Polish accents sound similar, but all characters are distinguishable from one another. His Brits, however, sound American, except when under stress. The abridgment is disjointed until the action gets going. Not for the faint of heart, this thriller reveals the best and worst in people.
