THE SUCCESSOR

Christian Gillette has his hands full. He must balance the responsibilities of running his billion-dollar company, accept a secret charge from the president of the United States, and figure out his love life. Happily, Holter Graham differentiates important characters flawlessly. Graham gives four women, countless Cuban men, and a host of other figures more than accents--he gives them identities. Graham guides the listener through the complex plot with acumen. The protagonist's boyish, unassuming voice gives a sense of calm to whatever situation he finds himself in. Graham never wavers, making a sometimes difficult plot uncomplicated. M.B. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/ JUL 07]
