A SPY'S LIFE Robert Harland, Book 1

Matthew Lloyd Davies’s performance is intelligent, honest, and compelling in this intriguing story filled with spycraft and surprises. Robert Harland, ex-British spy, currently works for the UN secretary- general. After surviving a plane crash, which was possibly sabotage, he’s drawn back into intelligence work. Years earlier, as an agent in Czechoslovakia, Harland’s career and love affair ended after he was captured and tortured by an anonymous, vicious Serbian. As narrator, Davies is the complete package. When a man claiming to be Harland’s son appears, Davies ratchets up the tension. His voice is flexible, and his characterizations are completely credible, thanks to his top-notch acting. His British, Czech, and American accents are impressive, and he captures all the emotions packed into this terrific audiobook. S.J.H.
