THE KINGMAKER

THE KINGMAKER, third in the Drummond adventure series, pits military lawyer Sean Drummond against a shadow regime. Drummond puts his life in danger when he takes the case of U.S. Army General William Morrison, a Russian specialist accused of selling American secrets to the Russians. John Rubenstein carries the listener from Washington, DC, to Moscow with impeccable character changes and subtle accents. The pace is fast and the action dramatic; however, the end is given away far too soon. Appropriate musical breaks denote scene changes. This serious yet humorous tale will grip the listener to the end. G.D.W. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/SEP 03]
