I don't understand how people feel ripped off

If a book, or short story in this case, costs less than $2 and you used a credit on it instead of just purchasing it you are a moron no matter how good or bad it is since credits cost more than $2. If a book costs less than a credit you should always purchase it instead of using a credit. Also, it clearly states that it is a short story, so again, if you feel ripped off you are a moron. People are always looking for someone else to blame for their own stupidity.

Doesn't sound like Baldacci!

This 35 minute gem of a short story was released in 2010. It's a superb little story with great narration. No Time Left was first released in 2010 as an add on to the audio recording of Absolute Power by David Baldacci. Absolute Power was released in 1996 and was Baldacci's first novel, but the audio version was released in 2010. I've read or listened to every book Baldacci has written and No Time Left is not typical of his works.

Sharp little short story.

I enjoyed it. I got to the end thinking I must have missed something that would have given away the twist. I am going to go back and listen again to see if I can pick up on it earlier! Worth your time.

Intriguing plot

A great listen while on your way to work. So much drama squeezed into this short story with Baldacci's talent for great story-telling.

Scott Brick is incredible, as always

The ending to the story is somewhat foreseeable, but Scott Brick a tour de force! He was one of the first narrators I ever heard in Audible, and I still think he is among the greats! His reading is so superb, he actually makes the story better than it might have been. He is completely believable as the character.

Typical but Good Baldacci

What did you love best about No Time Left?

As usual, the only place on earth to write about is Washington DC and northern Virginia, but that said this was a very good Baldacci thriller and a nice length for an all day cross state car ride allowing time for 'tape breaks' ... The 12 hour tapes are just too much in one day

Disturbing and not believable

Story was disturbing because of the callousness of Becker and his complete disregard for human life. The ending was unbelievable. I would not recommend this book. Not up to Baldacci's standard. Character very cold and callous.

Super story to spin your mind!

An excellent story filled with twists and turns and a very mind bending ending.

Excellent story!! Because it is so short, I can't say too much because it would ruin the end for readers.
