The Traitor's Story

De: Kevin Wignall

Narrado por: Simon Vance

When fifteen-year-old American Hailey Portman goes missing in Switzerland, her desperate parents seek the help of their neighbor, Finn Harrington, a seemingly quiet historian rumored to be a former spy.

Sensing the story runs deeper than anyone yet knows, Finn reluctantly agrees to make some enquiries. He has little to go on other than his instincts, and his instincts have been wrong in the past - sometimes spectacularly wrong.

But he gets involved anyway, never imagining that Hailey's disappearance might be linked to the tragic events that ended his career six years earlier, drawing him back into a deadly world that has neither forgiven nor forgotten.

Average yet entertaining

This book is definitely entertaining. It's a fairly fast paced spy thriller that is different enough from the usual fare in the genre to be interesting and engaging.
However, some of the circumstances in the book, including behavior and reactions of several characters, completely strain belief. I expect when reading any book that I'm going to have to suspend some disbelief, but this seemed really (I mean really, really) over the top. I hate spoilers so I won't say any more, but if that sort of thing doesn't bother you go ahead and enjoy the book.
I found the narration merely adequate.

great story

Great story with an intricate plot. That is well-delivered and exciting. Great reader as well.

Riveting!

I love it! It made me feel a full range of emotions and kept me enthralled.

Very good

Excellent reader, very good story. It was a little slow getting started but quite good after it took off. Not excellent story but very good.

Super Spy Thriller

Unusual plot. Well defined characters and plenty of action. Nice blend between past and present story. will read more of author.

different but enjoyable

not sure where the story could go but I would want to read more. interesting characters

A good story that moved too slow

This novel deviates from the norm of detective and thrillers and for that reason I would recommend it. However, the pace was a bit slow for my liking. Simon Vance, one of my favorite narrators, doesn't disappoint in this reading but to have him portray a 15 yearold, American girl pushed even his artistic boundaries.

Great spy novel

Well written with good imagery and compelling characters. Excellent narration
Ready for a film script.

inspiring

kepped me. on the edge of my seat the whole story. couldnt stop reading it

Great way to spend a rainy day!

I have to say it was really nice to have such a great mistery without so much focus on the description of the blood and gore. Thr fact that the sex was implied by 2 young people and not described was also very tasteful. I look forward to reading more by this author!
