With a story set against the backdrop of 1960s Berlin and the height of the Cold War, narrator Jonathan Davis helps build the tension, creating a dark atmosphere of suspicion and suspense. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten discuss Davis’s versatile narration of Joseph Kanon’s latest thriller. This audiobook features Martin Keller as he takes part in a spy swap and is moved from an English prison to Berlin, where he hopes to be reunited with his ex-wife and son. Davis’s authentic-sounding pronunciation of names and places sets the scenes, while his excellent pacing amps up the tension. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile’s website.
