THE LAST CAMPAIGN Near-Earth Mysteries, Book 2

Rebecca Mozo impressively introduces life in Maxwell City, on Mars, along with the array of international citizens who make up the settlement. Listeners will meet founder Nicolau Aames and his wife, police chief Rosalia Morais, and learn about the city's everyday life, food, unique gardening, restaurants, and stores. Characters sound realistic as Morais's job becomes more difficult when the population increases and political affiliations interfere with police investigations. Mozo excels with the many accents and riveting descriptions, and listeners will feel like they are by Rosalia's side as she personally takes on daily challenges. Discussions with her and her police squad are fascinating and intimate. Audio is the optimal choice for this matchless story, which relies heavily on dialogue. S.G.B.
