THE SPIES OF WARSAW

Acclaimed historical fiction writer Furst's latest story is a remarkable portrait set in the early stages of WWII. Decorated war hero Colonel Jean François Mercier works his way into the seedy covert world of espionage and international intrigue. Despite the plot twists and complex web of characters, each of whom may or may not be who he or she appears to be, narrator Daniel Gerroll makes his way through the story with the greatest of ease. With a variety of colorful accents, each as perfectly tuned as the last, Gerroll sweeps listeners into the time and place of the story—1937 Eastern Europe—and displays a knack for challenging roles.
