3RD DEGREE

by James Patterson, Andrew Gross | Read by Carolyn McCormick

Mystery & Suspense • 6.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2004

Running with her dog on a quiet Sunday morning, Homicide Detective Lindsey Boxer witnesses the explosion that starts a week of terrorism in San Francisco. Carolyn McCormick's performance strikes the right balance of professionalism and horror in Boxer's first-person account. McCormick portrays the detective as both detached investigator and sensitive woman, those qualities fighting for dominance in each area of her life. Other characters also receive careful attention, with a light touch of regional accent here and there to polish their personalities. Occasional muted sound effects and musical interludes enhance the performance. R.P.L. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/ SEP 04]
