Publisher's summary

When a local man intentionally drowns himself, a murder that has been submerged for 20 years surfaces, capturing screenwriter Ray Boon's imagination. Ray is compelled by the little voice in his head to find the reason for the apparent suicide. His search begins with a day-old newspaper story about a skeleton found in a Gloucester, Massachusetts, quarry and ends with the identification of the victim of a 20-year-old murder and, possibly, her killer.

A great New England novella

The author constructs a great and compact story. His description of New England characteristics and the development of the protagonist are concise and well crafted. I don’t usually read novellas but this story kept me engaged from beginning to end.

A short enjoyable mystery

What made the experience of listening to Pocket Change the most enjoyable?

Chris Cuillla's voice brought my Ray Boon character (and Ray's inner voice) to life and was able to capture the rest of the cast as well.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Pocket Change?

The way that Chris voiced Ray Boon as he talked to his inner voice like it was another character expressing ego and doubt, and catching the little details that may go unnoticed.

What about Chris Andrew Ciulla’s performance did you like?

The timber of his voice helped me picture the main character. His reading was like he was in the room sharing a favorite story with me. He did a wonderful job.

Exceptional in all regards

The narration was topnotch; I paid close attention to the distinction between characters and it was flawless... I couldn't ask for more. Coupled with a dynamic storyline, Putney and Ciulla make an exceptionally talented pair to say the least.

Definitely Worthwhile

Just finished this audiobook, provided by the narrator for an honest review. I enjoyed this short story. I really liked the character of Ray Boon and Jack's history made me invested in the novella. The narration is the true winner in this story. Chris Andrew Ciulla does a fantastic job bringing this short novella to life.
