Truman's Washington mysteries are always well plotted and full of local color. This one involves a senator with presidential ambitions and a murdered wife, a former DA intent on finding the killer, and a lobbying firm with murky secrets. The multiethnic cast of characters--the Asian policeman, the smooth African-American lobbyist are two--present a ripe opportunity for a narrator, and Phil Gigante does most of them well, although a few sound like caricatures. But Gigante gets the self-important, controlling senator just right. He also conveys vocally who the villains are, so the denouement may not be much of a surprise. Truman's series sleuths, Mac and Annabel, participate in this entertaining mystery. J.B.G. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB/ MAR 08]
