THE PRIEST

This exciting debut mystery is set in Dublin. Expect more from this author since listeners will come to love the male and female leads. Michael Kramer does an admirable job with the Irish accents, but sometimes, in the heat of the chase, his brogue gets a little tangled with his South African, Australian, or New Zealand accent. But there are rich opportunities for his tremendous vocal range, which he satisfies completely. Kramer’s narrative voice is rich and warm, and his pacing is flawlessly keyed to the action of the story. His portrayals of the young female characters are also well done, especially for a narrator with such a deep voice. M.C. © AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2011]
