VIOLATION

To find her abducted son, rape victim Thea Aubin must uncover the truth about the horrific crime she can't bear to remember. North explores both the real-world and the inner battles of a woman, a man, and a maturing boy. The book is both a fast-paced mystery and a multilevel human drama about regaining the capacity for trust. Ed Sala not only delivers all of this, but also makes the reader care about the characters. Some narrators grab your attention with a sonorous voice and intimate tone but never manage to capture the sense and feeling of a book. Ed Sala captures every nuance from page one, and his gritty voice "grows on you." K.C. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/ SEP 01]
