POISON FLOWER

Jane Whitefield is a Seneca guide and warrior who helps people disappear. In this latest installment, she expertly spirits away James Shelby, an innocent man who is being framed for the murder of his wife. So begins a body-laden journey that gains momentum as it crisscrosses the country and primarily involves Jane, Shelby and Daniel Martel, the man who wants Shelby dead. Joyce Bean’s exquisite delivery inhabits the characters, finding unique male and female voices for Jane, her clients, her captors, and her husband, Dr. McKinnon. Bean helps build the growing tension at a steady pace as Jane tracks down Martel to a final confrontation. Bean’s evocative reading creates an exciting listening experience. S.C.A.
