What would you do if your son went missing? How far would you go to get him back?

Michael Barton comes home to find his infant son gone. There is no trace of the kidnappers, and the police have no leads. Michael is driven by a promise and he will not stop. Detective Jason Strong led the task force to find Michael's son and has become his friend. But as Michael's darkness grows, Jason fears he may be the only one who can stop him. It is a race against time, as the detective tries to stop the events that will change everyone, before it's too late.

This is the first performance by Rich McVicar that I've listened to but will listen to more of his performances in the future. I like his voice in this story.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I had a reaction of surprise in this story. It went in a completely different direction that I thought it would.

Any additional comments?

This was a great stay up late, exciting book.. I would love to see a series come out of it possibly built up around Detective Strong. This was a good thriller.I received this audiobook free of charge in exchange for an unbiased review.

Emotionally realistic.

Great narrator. I could feel the anguish of losing a baby through death as well as from a kidnapping. The fears as well as desperation of hope of both families was
Palpable. All in all a good read.

Where does Where's My Son? rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is my first experience with audiobooks, and I'm quite surprised and excited. Listening to the story as opposed to reading it really puts you in the scenes. This may be my first audiobook but it will not be my last. I feel like I've discovered a whole new dimension. From hardback to paperback to kindle to audio - this is pretty fantastic.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favorite character has to be Det. Jason Strong - I've read other books featuring the detective and I like him a lot.

What about Rich McVicar’s performance did you like?

I thought Rich McVicar did a great job with his voice inflections to make the story more listenable. He really made me feel like I was in the moment with the cast of characters. He's a great story teller.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I was so afraid at the end that Michael was going to succeed. I didn't want Jack to find out the truth since he had such a wonderfully loving family.

A violent thriller, if you're into that.

Any additional comments?

Generally, I'm not into thriller mysteries, but this book was actually pretty good. Unlike other thrillers, it's hard to guess at the ending and I honestly did not see the character developments coming. And that's not necessarily a good thing. Michael's transformation into such a violent person took me by complete surprise and took me out of the moment and the rest of the book. The detective (who is suppose to be the main character?) hardly shows up at all and only impacts the plot at the very end. But I must say that the story was really good.

I found the narrator to be very good. He wasn't intrusive like some authors, pulling you out of the story by odd character choices. His inflections mimicked what I would have heard in my own head if I had read the book. His voice wasn't too low and his speed was relatively fast. A very good job.

A violent thriller, if you're into that sort of thing.

Not a fairytale

I like that the book had twists and unexpected turns. I also liked that it did not have a perfect fairytale ending. A very enjoyable listen
