HOT SPRINGS

WWII hero Earl Swagger is recruited by the government to lead a SWAT-like team of men against the illegal activities running rampant in the Arkansas city. There he must confront not only the criminals, but also disloyalty in his own ranks and the shadow of his corrupt and brutal father. The dialogue here is as fast paced as the action, and Sanders successfully tackles a variety of accents. His low-pitched voice seems just right for what is a essentially a war novel with a domestic setting. The editing seems a bit choppy at the end, but otherwise this tape provides nonstop excitement in both text and production. J.B.G. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine [Published: APR/MAY 01]
