TRIAL AND RETRIBUTION V

The fifth in Linda La Plante's popular series parallels an infamous British crime, the 25 Cromwell Street Case, in which the remains of 25 women were found in a back garden. In this episode, DCI Walker is called in when a demolition crew uncovers the skeletal remains of a young woman. After some investigating, more skeletons are unearthed. In addition to this seventeen-year-old mystery, Walker is also having relationship problems with DI Pat North. Listening to Christian Rodska is always a pleasure. He's one of those narrators who can read a road sign and keep you on the edge of your seat. Rodska gives Walker a raspy voice, tinged with humanity and decency. He makes us care what happens as Walker struggles to solve both his problems. S.J.H. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/SEP 03]
