THE WEALTH OF SHADOWS

by | Read by Johnathan McClain

Mystery & Suspense • 12.75 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2024

In this thrilling historical novel, Johnathan McClain has command of the pacing, the multiple characters, and their varied accents. He adds zest to a twisty plot about how the U.S. once planned to bring down the German economy. The story starts in 1939, when a young tax attorney joins a small group of Treasury Department misfits who plan to wreak economic warfare on the Reichsbank. That their efforts involve everyone from Maynard Keynes to Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau and FDR himself adds to what is a remarkable true story. Throw in some spies, and the stakes climb higher. Though the author moves around some characters and timelines, it only adds to the tension. McClain keeps listeners on the edge even though we think we all know the ultimate outcome. L.W.S. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2024]
