Blindfold Game

De: Dana Stabenow

Narrado por: Bernadette Dunne

In Thailand, two men hire a pair of international pirates to smuggle them, a small team of mercenaries, and some equipment aboard a freighter at a Russian port. It's frighteningly easy, and the ship sails east, toward the western coast of North America.

In Washington, D.C., a CIA analyst has been hearing rumors about the sale of radioactive material and military equipment on the black market in deep Russia but can't get it confirmed.

The analyst, Hugh Rincon, originally from Alaska and more keenly aware than most in Washington of Alaska's vulnerability with its air force base and proximity to the Far East, begins to piece it all together. He can't get anyone to take him seriously, however, least of all the director of the CIA.

Then Hugh learns that his estranged wife, Sarah Lange, is second in command on the Sojourner Truth in the Bering Sea at the heart of the potential conflict. And the chase is on.

The first stand-alone thriller from the pen of Dana Stabenow, Edgar® Award-winning author of seventeen crime novels, delivers a nail-biting, action-packed read, international in scope and chillingly real.©2006 Dana Stabenow; (P)2006 Books on Tape

Not the same

I've read most of Stabenow's books and this one does not measure up to what I'm used to. I enjoyed the story, but the suspense was not there. This was not one of those stories where you can't put it down. Her Shugak novels are those types of stories. This is not one of those novels you're afraid to read on a cold stormy night. An interesting story, but not up to the Shugak quality.

Excellent Book

Im only half way through this book but I thought I'd write a review for those trying to decide if its workh listening too. So far its an excellent book and I am listening to it at every opportunity. So far the characters are interesting and well developed and the plot is intriguing and plausible.

Wonderful narrator, great story

great story line, multiple threads coming together at the end, excellent narration. this 15 word minimum review requirement is a hassle

disappointed

I have read and enjoyed this author's previous works which are modern detective stories with style.This book, however, is a stretch with little plot development and few interesting characters. The narration is flat, save your time and money.

Coast Guard comes through

Blindfold Game has good suspense and plot development with as many twists and turns as its ocean setting has high waves. How often do you find a story with a female Coast Guard hero? At first, I was a bit put off by the narrator's somewhat stilted style; but as the story developed, it became irrelevant. A good read!
