Acerca de esta escucha

In the heat of the city, a man is out of time: speeding in a beat-up Ford Tempo, blasting easy-listening music. Reporter Steve Everett drinks too much, makes love to his boss' wife, and has just stumbled upon a shocking truth: A convicted killer is about to be executed for a crime he didn't commit.

In the cold confines of Death Row, Frank Beachum is also out of time. Ready to say good-bye to the wife and child he loves and hello to the God he still believes in, Beachum knows he did not kill a convenience store clerk six years ago. But in a few hours - if Steve Everett can't find the evidence to stop it - a needle is going to pierce Frank Beachum's skin.

The killing machine is primed. The executioner is waiting. And so is the priest. Now the clock is ticking down and the race is on - between the reporter and his demons, between the system and its lethal flaws, between the last innocent man and society's ultimate crime....

Gonna be a yup for me dawg. If you enjoyed Norm McDonald’s memoir, you will appreciate this. it’s like Norm McDonald’s memoir but if Norm McDonald was instead a real newsman instead of a satirical newsman, and Norm McDonald was Jack Bauer on a season of 24 that wrapped early, and Jack Bauer was a sex addict (like norm mcdonald) that had just 17.5 hours to halt the execution of a christlike mechanic whose only crime was putting A1 on a perfectly good steak ( granted, not a trivial transgression )

10/10. bonus points for making me shed a single tear on three separate occasions. Narrator is a once-in-a-generation talent, too

what did i just listen to?

Love “the Klavan”, but the book consists of hundreds and hundreds of instances of characters thinking to themselves. Good plot, good writing, but it’s like spreading 1 pound of butter on 1000 pieces of toast. Still good, but too spread out. A little more concise would make it much easier to listen to.

Too long for the amount of plot.

At first, I thought it was a chapter out of Klavan's autobiography. But then I realized that it was some other newsman.

I love Klavan's art! I often listen to his podcast and have read some of his other works and thoroughly enjoyed them. So far, I think this is his masterpiece although I think he is prouder of "The Great Good Thing."

I totally got a kick out of the guy that did the intro and the farewell (not the reader) mispronouncing Klavan both times as if it rhymes with cavern. Drew is always telling us how to spell his name. "... there are no "e's" in Klavan. But who knew that the real danger would be someone introducing his book who doesn't know the long "ā" from the short one in Klāvan? That made me laugh out loud.

But I thought the narrator did a very good job.

Gripping! Great descriptive prose!

The narration perfectly matched the story, particularly with the intensity he gave at the critical moments.

Very good story and gripping characters. I new the author from prior political commentary and didn’t know what to expect. Glad to report that the book was interesting like a novel should be and not preachy or bland, the way one might expect a novel written by a conservative commentator. 5/5

Excess expectations

I loved the psychological depths that Klavan explored through all the characters. I also loved the building tension throughout. I don’t like a lot of the ‘bad’ language—especially taking the Lord’s Name in vain, but I understand he’s recreating characters who would most likely talk like that. I think he knows the venues well & changing their ‘bad’ language might very well sound artificial.
I thought overall-it was great!

Captivating & insightful

I read this about 20 years ago and was pleased to see they finally have it in audio form. The narrator did incredible justice to a tightly plotted, well-crafted book! so worth a credit.

phenomenal book

I cannot say anything about this Klavan thriller story without it being a spoiler, but I certainly recommend the listen. Mr Monsef provides fine voice dramatization. However Mr. Monsef, you did have Steve hum to Davey the tune narrated as the William Tell Overture to the tune of Beethoven's Ninth Ode to Joy.

Heroic Ford Tempo?

An entertaining story with insight to the true ugliness of capital punishment presented from multiple viewpoints.

Great Story

Andrew Klavan is a master storyteller. Perhaps a bit more foul language than is necessary, but great story.

Gripping story telling
