7TH HEAVEN

This installment in the Women's Murder Club series involves murder, stalking, and arson. Lindsay Boxer and her partner, Rich Conklin, investigate a series of brutal arsons in which rich couples are burned alive in their homes. Subplots include a lead on the disappearance of rich kid Michael Campion and a plot involving a psychotic journalist. Carolyn McCormick reads this chilling mystery with just the right touch of suspense. McCormick's soft-voiced narration delivers an unemotional reading of the horrific crimes perpetrated by the story's cold-blooded serial killers. In this way, McCormick keeps herself at arm's length emotionally from the events of the mystery, thereby adroitly increasing its tension and keeping the listener poised for the next piece of the puzzle.
