Alan Livingston thought he had everything figured out. Graduate from college, got into law and eventually into politics. Until financial reality set in and he had to drop out after only two years. His goals were out of reach and options were few and far between. He hopped from job to job for a while, and tried everything from tree cutting to being a bouncer. Nothing stuck. Finally, he lands something both interesting and challenging.
Alan has skills which help him as a private investigator. Respect for people, an unassuming manner, resourcefulness and a knack for finding the truth. Things might work out after all.
Then he got a call in the middle of the night.
At the airport in Lexington, Kentucky, Alan grabs his suitcase and rushes to get a car to investigate - a plane crash? What he finds will stay with him a long time.

Susan R. Sloan, a longtime trial attorney who worked for both the prosecution and the defense, lives on an island off Puget Sound in Washington.
Pamela Nyberg's soft, low-pitched voice and neutral approach are boons to this politically charged presentation. One hundred-seventy-six people have perished in the bombing of a Seattle clinic that, among many social services, provides abortions. A squeaky clean naval officer whose wife secretly aborted is a likely suspect. Defense attorney Dana McAuliffe must deal with a despised client, an unscrupulous journalist, jurors with agendas, and bosses who don't want her to succeed. This is a long story, full of characters and subplots; most of both will stick with you, thanks to the even-handed and well-paced reading. Some characters get voices, and some don't; male voices are lower, Southern accents appear for fundamentalists, and Nyberg gives the defendant's wife a hard edge to suggest that all is not well there. You probaby won't guess the ending, so keep listening. J.B.G. © AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
