THE HUMANIST

San Francisco investigative journalist Arnold Rednapp looks into a death in a small town. Author W.E. Roberts narrates his own mystery, and his unique knowledge of the plot and characters ensures a natural and confident narration. The story pulls listeners into the town, where most people want to accept the death as an accident. The cast is composed of a wide range of characters whom Roberts convincingly brings to life as he provides the clues that help reveal the truth. The key protagonists, both male and female, are well distinguished--one character even speaks with an accomplished British accent. While a relatively short audiobook, this makes for a satisfying listen. K.J.P. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2015]
