AGAINST THE WIND

Hotshot trial attorney Will Alexander has few clients left when four motorcycle gang members accused of a grisly crime request him for their defense. If the reader does not object to the graphic crime descriptions and steamy sexual encounters, David Colacci presents a masterful interpretation of this compelling story. The vocal characterization of Alexander brilliantly portrays the duality of the hard-living antihero and an unusually caring father. Cadence and tone are used with great success to depict Alexander's inner voice, a particularly hard "character" to represent and to differentiate from the rest of the dialogue. A fine selection for audio, the listener is drawn in as judge and jury and led on by Alexander's own compulsion to succeed. R.F.W. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN 92]
