Reviews

Greer Whitaker, a political idealist, is hired by the CIA to uncover a plot within the National Security Agency, but everything goes wrong, starting with the death of the head of the NSA. Who's out to get Whitaker, who's behind the plot, and what is the truth behind all the lies? Reed Diamond performs this tale with spine-tingling characterizations that add dimension to each player. His flawless phrasing and passionate involvement accentuate Whitaker's tension and fear. Compton's believable plot is made more so by Diamond's reading. The listener is drawn in and held helpless until the startling conclusion. M.B.K. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
