OrangeReviewStarAfter a failed heist that almost claimed both their lives six years prior, Angela and Jack, aka Ghostman, find themselves in a life-and-death struggle against the Chinese mob and a cold-blooded mercenary to retain ownership of a bag of uncut sapphires worth millions. This sequel to Ghostman offers another fast-paced, action-packed thriller filled with sexual tension, violence, and edge-of-your-seat suspense. Narrator Jake Weber escalates the suspense with timely dramatic pauses, intonations, and inflections. His accents are flawless and natural as he moves effortlessly among the characters. Weber personifies each distinct character and renders a highly enjoyable performance.
VERDICT A thrill-ride for hard-boiled noir listeners and fans of highly detailed, gritty fiction about the criminal world. A dynamic duo of superb writing and outstanding narration. Libraries would do well to place this audiobook on their shelves.
