Author Joe Ide and narrator Sullivan Jones make a phenomenal team. Ide writes a crack debut with charm, wit, and style. Jones delivers it with such ease and perfection that listeners will feel they're living the story instead of listening to it. Isaiah Quintabe, a gifted young man living in a tough Los Angeles neighborhood, uses his intellectual ability to help those in need—solving crimes and righting wrongs. He's a fresh take on the classic detective. Jones articulates every aspect of Isaiah's personality—his swagger as well as his doubts, his compassion alongside his defiance. Jones will have listeners on the edge of their seats and laughing out loud at the same time. The smart choice is this exemplary audiobook. J.F.
