THE KAISER'S WEB Cotton Malone, Book 16

This gripping audiobook, narrated ably by Scott Brick, focuses on the chilling premise that both candidates for chancellor of Germany are Hitler's children. During the election, a secret dossier surfaces, which--if its claims are true--would upend the election and, perhaps, the geopolitical balance of power. Investigators from all over the world are called in, including Cotton Malone, a former Justice Department agent who is often consulted when long-buried secrets may come to light. Brick's delivery is superb, bringing to the mic his ability to create unique voices--in this case, characters with distinctive accents from Germany, South America, and elsewhere. As the story unfolds, so, too, does Brick's intensity--right up to the audiobook's explosive conclusion. D.J.S.
