KISS OF THE BEES

The events of this story cover only a few days, but the listener is transported between ancient Papago tales and events two decades ago and events during present time. In this sequel to HOUR OF THE HUNTER, Gene Engene uses vocal intonations and accents to distinguish each character in a nearly flawless performance of this complex and suspenseful tale of murder, revenge and just a hint of the supernatural. His male personae are especially effective, ranging from a demented ex-prisoner to a frightened child. Occasional technical sounds and gaps occur, but mystery lovers will not be distracted from his compelling delivery. B.L.W. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/NOV 00]
