Crime Beat

De: Scott Nicholson

Narrado por: Tom Zingarelli

Crime doesn't pay...but neither does journalism.

When John Moretz takes a job as a reporter in the Appalachian town of Sycamore Shade, a crime wave erupts that boosts circulation and leaves people uneasy. Then a murder victim is discovered, and Moretz is first on the scene.

As more bodies turn up, Moretz comes under police suspicion, but the newspaper's sales are booming due to his coverage of sensational crime. His editor is torn between calling off his newshound and cashing in on the attention, plus the editor is romancing the big-city reporter assigned to cover the suspected serial killer.

And Moretz seems to be one step ahead of the other reporters, the police, and even the killer himself.

Agatha Christie would have enjoyed this story...

The narrator evoked sympathy with the killer in the tone of his voice and the plot was magnificent.

Good Listen

I enjoyed this story by Scott Nicholson from beginning to end. Tom Zingarelli did a fine job narrating.
