POP GOES THE WEASEL

A serial killer is on the loose in Southeast Washington, D.C., and Detective Alex Cross charges off to find the madman, only to become embroiled in his demonic game. POP GOES THE WEASEL is heavily dramatized in three voices. Roger Rees’s crisp, clear voice represents the psychopathic killer, Shafer, and his role-playing game cronies; Keith David’s warm tones bring Alex Cross, his family and police companions to the fore; Garet Scott tells the tragic tale of Patty Huggins, rogue police detective. Replete with sound effects and music that match the scenes perfectly, Patterson’s tale of murder and mayhem will ensnare listeners until its horrifying end.
