FORCE OF NATURE

In this second powerhouse audiobook from Harper, five women go on a corporate retreat, and only four return. The setting is the Australian Outback, not a location where most people would expect a corporate retreat to take place. Narrator Stephen Shanahan puts his clear Australian accent to good advantage as he portrays Aaron Falk, the lead investigator in the search for the missing woman. He also creates the backstory for each of the other female participants. His voice doesn't change much, but his tone and inflection do, and that makes every one of the female characters an individual. Harper may have created this amazing whodunit, but Shanahan makes it sizzle to the very end. Both story and narrator are not to be missed. E.E.S.
