THE BLUE EDGE OF MIDNIGHT

Nick Sullivan expertly portrays former Philly cop Max Freeman, who is wrenched from his hermetic life in the Florida Everglades when he finds the body of a kidnapped child. Max's tortured past is portrayed through flashbacks as he goes up against the Florida wilderness and bizarre backwoods characters while trying to stop another child from being murdered and searching for who is trying to frame him. Max's conflicted character is captured in Sullivan's muscular reading of this Edgar Award-winning novel. Even characters' parenthetical comments are distinct from their regular speech. D.T.H.
