A DEATH IN BELMONT

Kevin Conway breathes intensity and suspense into this detailed account of the Boston Strangler and Junger's personal connection to two men who were convicted for the Strangler's crimes. Conway projects a variety of characters with an individuality that prevents confusion. His rhythm and emphasis also allow for greater comprehension of the complex text, particularly when Junger discusses laws and legal issues. In addition to the personal stories and narrative, this audiobook serves as a primer on criminal justice, and Junger's inquiries instill ambiguity, not simple solutions. An in-depth interview with Junger rounds out this already well-tuned audiobook, making it a phenomenal listen for fiction and nonfiction fans alike.
