MISSING AND ENDANGERED Joanna Brady, Book 19

Hillary Huber returns to narrate the 19th addition to Jance's Sheriff Joanna Brady series. For fans, it will feel like a homecoming as Huber consistently performs all the familiar returning characters. In addition, she uses accents and pitch to differentiate the personalities specific to this story, including young children. The plot unfolds a couple of weeks before Christmas with a domestic violence situation that results in one of Sheriff Brady's officers being seriously wounded and the perpetrator being killed by the officer. But all is not as it seems. A subplot involves Sheriff Brady's college-age daughter, Jenny, and her roommate, who disappears after a relationship with a cyber creep. Huber's pace and tone seem in perfect step with Jance's character-driven storytelling. E.Q. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: FEBRUARY 2021]
