GOOD RICH PEOPLE

Karissa Vacker and Sophie Amoss narrate dual perspectives in Brazier's latest psychological suspense about wealthy, disturbed characters and the mind games they play. Lyla and Graham invite Demi to stay at their guesthouse in the Hollywood Hills with the intent of destroying her life for their entertainment. As they capture the satire and twists, Vacker and Amoss set the stage for each loathsome character and their distorted world. Lyla's demeanor is presented with a soft, sickeningly sweet, and coy tone. Her inner thoughts are depicted as cunning and devious. In contrast to Lyla, Demi is vocalized as stronger and more mysterious, with a deeper tone that supports her difficult past. Cynical characters listeners will love to hate and the element of murder make for a compelling listen. D.Z. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2022]
