The Sleeping God

From the Case Files of Conrad Blake

By: A.J. George

Narrated by: Scott Ellis

Blood-mottled walls mark a gory crime scene without a body, and a shocked witness tells an impossible story–that’s what awaits Conrad Blake, a Boston private detective, when he answers a desperate midnight call.

Amidst the evidence, he uncovers a peculiar object of antiquity and the passport of the victim, a promising anthropologist. But murder is only the tip of the iceberg. Nefarious intelligent minds are hard at work as Conrad walks the strands of a convoluted web that lead to an unimaginable truth–a truth that forever changes his perception of reality.

A Fun Old School Story

This was an enjoyable listen. No one writes like this any more. This is simply fun. An old fashion mystery at its best, with speculative elements of course. And the narration is top notch! Ellis is a pro. So many voices.

Highly Recommend

This is a well written, first novel with many unexpected twists and turns. It takes place in the thirties and the writing reflects the rich language and nuances of the time.

This is an “edge of the seat” adventure story. The colorful descriptions of the various characters allow the listener/reader to become immersed in this riveting tale.

There is romance, murder an antiquity and when it’s least expected - horror! Mr. George draws from his own experience of opening an old, long forgotten safe and this story evolved from the contents within.

Narrator, Scott Ellis does a remarkable job depicting the numerous characters. Well done!
