THE WHISTLER The Whistler, Book 1

The venerable author is at it again in this legal thriller about two good guys who hold the key to a corruption ring that involves a high-ranking state employee and a Native American-owned casino. Narrator Cassandra Campbell keeps up a good pace and varies her tone as she portrays the myriad characters. Without using accents she ensures that listeners can keep the cast straight as the pair of investigators find themselves with targets on their backs. Campbell capably handles the plot twists--and there are a few--that pop up along the way. It's worth listening to find out how the case works out, though Grisham's ending seems a bit rushed.
