Riveting, Highly recommend
Jim Frangione is the perfect narrator for The Continental Op and this audio’s nothing short of a masterclass in storytelling.
His sonorous voice pulls you into the gritty world of Dashiell Hammett's iconic detective. Frangione captures the essence of the Op with a perfectly calibrated tone that blends grit and subtlety, immersing the listener in the tension and intrigue of each scene.
