From AudioFile
Sam Packer is working undercover for the Intelligence Service when he discovers that biological weapons have been smuggled out of Iraq for a planned explosion overseas. Moments after learning this, his cover is blown. Christian Rodska has a nuanced voice that is well suited to individualizing the many voices and accents in the story. He uses his voice like a well-tuned instrument, heightening the effect of the words. Rodska is particularly good at making the characters' fear so palpable that it can make a listener nervous. A nail-biting listen. A.C.S. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
