DEAD OR ALIVE

Narrator George Guidall continues to prove his unlimited range with his performance of the twelfth Kevin Kerney adventure by former policeman turned bestselling novelist Michael McGarrity. Ex-cop Kerney snaps back into action following a short retirement when a friend is murdered by escaped convict Craig Larson. The psychopath revels in gore and violence on his rampage through Texas and Colorado, and Guidall produces a snarl in his voice as he depicts Larson's crimes. Kerney has recently learned he has a son, also a cop, and the two bond during the chase for Larson. Guidall allows tenderness and affection to creep into his voice as he portrays their growing relationship. Both fans of the series and newcomers will be hooked.
