THE POLICEMAN'S DAUGHTER Sarah Alt, Book 3

Detective Salt (Sarah Alt) is portrayed with passion in a clear, warm voice by narrator Allyson Ryan. Well-developed characters and authentic dialogue are Boyce's strengths, and Ryan splendidly enhances them. This gritty police procedural takes place before Salt has been promoted to detective. The current case involves a drug-addicted hooker, Shannell, and her boyfriend, "Big D," who have an abusive relationship. They live in a housing project in Atlanta that is plagued by violence. In addition, Salt, an absorbing and engaging character, is still dealing with her father's suicide when she was 10. Ryan brings a bit of lightness and hope to the otherwise gritty plot with changes in pacing and tone. S.C.A. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2018]
