THE MURDER LIST

This courtroom drama and murder mystery will delight listeners who enjoy a well-constructed story presented by a skilled narrator. The story involves a vicious competition between an ambitious prosecutor and a defense attorney who is determined to win every trial. Narrator Angela Dawe gives Martha, the prosecutor, a distinctive raw, scratchy voice that communicates power and authority. Attorney Jack is given a charming, surprisingly masculine voice that marks him as an alpha male. At the center of the plot is law student Rachel, who recounts events in the voice of the girl next door. Dawe brings all the characters to life in this deftly plotted suspense, which leaves listeners asking who the good guys are. D.L.G. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2019]
