BECKER

"Becker's the name. Just Becker." So says this affable hotel detective, ensconced in the Queen of the Rockies, a grand hotel in its heyday--1923. And BECKER is stylish audio drama, complete with period music, a committed cast, professional sound design, and scripts written for the ear rather than the eye. Enjoy these four episodes of the CBC's "Mystery Project," a successful and vibrant collection of deeds and misdeeds solved in Holmes-like fashion by Becker, our narrator and star. You'll be sure to smile at his repartee with hotel staff and guests. D.J.B. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/ NOV 03]
