An ACCIDENTAL AMERICAN

This edge-of-your-seat work of fiction weaves the past half-century of Middle Eastern and Western politics within the context of our current conflicts. Ex-con, ex-forger Nicole Blake, who has done her time in a Marseille prison, is persuaded to leave her now quiet life in France to return to Lisbon to seek out a terrorist. Ultimately, the web leads back to the city of her birth, Beirut. Caroline Lee carries all the voices effortlessly. She does the many accents beautifully and portrays the male roles well. Her vocal transitions are seamless, and listeners are treated to her lovely native Australian accent in bits of the narration. This thriller will especially appeal to those interested in the recent history of Lebanon and U.S. involvement there. M.C. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB/ MAR 08]
