Day of Atonement

De: Faye Kellerman

Narrado por: Mitchell Greenberg

Peter Decker of the L.A.P.D. never dreamed he'd be spending his honeymoon with his new wife, Rina Lazarus, in an Orthodox Jewish enclave in Brooklyn, New York—or that a terrible event would end it so abruptly. But a boy has vanished from the midst of this close-knit religious community, a troubled youth fleeing the tight bonds and strictures he felt were strangling him. The runaway, Noam, is not traveling alone. A killer has taken him under his wing to introduce Noam to a savage world of blood and terror. And now Decker must find them both somewhere in America before a psychopath ends the life of a confused and frightened youngster whose only sin was to want something more.

family love

liked the continued story of Decker and Rena. also Jewish laws and rules. Good story

An awesome first listen!!!

I love Faye Kellerman, but moreso her characters, Peter Decker and Rina Lazarus. This was my first audio book and OMgosh! Mitch Greenberg did a wonderful job narrating the story! I felt like I was there, but his jewish accent when talking to Peter as the Rabbi was over the top! I'll order again and again. If everyone does this great a job, I'll be happy for a very long time!

Great ending!

Faye Kellerman does a super job of fleshing out her characters. Both the job "family" as well as the home family. They all travel seamlessly between books and storylines.
The Jewish community and history easily fits in as part of the storylines. Each book builds upon the last but can stand alone. The problem with a standalone concept is the need to see what happens next. They are all that good!

Good book

Can't wait to listen to the next one in the Peter Decker Ceres I'm downloading the next one as we speak

Great story, Fabulous narrator!!

I really enjoy listening to Mitch Greenberg reading this series. I wish he'd done all of them. To me, he's become Peter Decker. Not only that, but his character voices, accents, and Hebrew pronunciation really put these books over the top. Please, please, please, let him complete the series!! I've tried to listen to some of the others and they just aren't "right" after hearing Mitch's treatment of them.
