Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience! *

Returning to the now-renowned locale of Kindle County, Scott Turow gives us Mack Malloy, ex-cop, not-quite-ex-drunk, and partner-on-the-wane in one of the country's most high-powered law firms. A longtime ally of the wayward, Mack is on the trail of a colleague, his firm's star litigator, who has vanished with more than five million dollars of a client's money. Mack will descend into the enthralling and ominous heart of a city...taking you with him on his final, desperate, and courageous crusade to reinvent himself from the depths of his own shattered soul.

*Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

hard to finish

music background was annoying. story weak. not his best work. not worth the time.

Poor Performance

The story was good. I would recommend using a credit but only if you don't mind constant background music. The narration was good but that mind numbing, incessant background music was totally annoying.

boring

Scott Turow’s ego came out in this one. Wordy, boring and way too longThe charcter is unbelievable. The setting is wrong. I could not recommend this book.

Worst Ever Turow

More than half of this book is annoying filler -- meaningless philosophy, people's thoughts, descriptions of surroundings and how people are dressed. All of this is distracting making the story harder to follow. Was turow being paid by the word?

The narration is not great but OK. The music is, at best, distracting.

The story is also OK but not nearly as good as some of Turow's other books.

Difficult to follow...

I have read Scott Turow before and usually like his books, although none has surpassed Presumed Innocent. I had no problem with the musical accompaniment since I listen in my car and it is barely noticeable. However, the problem I did have was being able to concentrate on the storyline when he went off in so many mindless, meaningless directions. It certainly felt like he just wrote to fill pages rather than add content and worth to the plot. I did enjoy the narration and probably would have enjoyed it more if not for the irritating misdirection of the story.

Bottom line, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone for their next great read/listen.
