SEVENTEEN

Kazumasa Yuuki is an investigative reporter who is about to get the scoop of the year. Narrator Tom Lawrence brings us into Kazumasa's complex inner world as he juggles his ambitions with the politics of the newsroom where he works. Lawrence's crisp, even tone may call to mind aspects of Japanese minimalism. The story involves a plane crash that might be too horrific for many to listen to, but Lawrence keeps listeners going with an even tone as he describes the range of the damage. Based on true events and well-researched fictional details, this audiobook provides a steady performance that listeners will appreciate.
