Acerca de esta escucha
While searching for his parents' killers, ex-Navy SEAL captain Adam Weldon encounters a lovely undercover FBI agent.
He also encounters a ruthless drug cartel intent on killing him, a gambling casino for the super-rich run by a radio preacher, a host of motley river guides, and a succession of hair-raising challenges both in and out of the whitewater rapids of the Kern River.
This thrilling pause-resister also provides a powerful, almost tactile experience of the magic and beauty of rivers and is a celebration of nature and life itself.

On January 14, 2015, Tommy Caldwell, along with his partner, Kevin Jorgeson, summited what is widely regarded as the hardest climb in history - Yosemite’s nearly vertical 3,000-foot Dawn Wall, after 19 days on the route. This engrossing memoir chronicles the journey of a boy with a fanatical mountain-guide father who was determined to instill toughness in his son to a teen whose obsessive nature drove him to the top of the sport-climbing circuit.

Erik Weihenmayer is the first and only blind person to summit Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth. Descending carefully, he and his team picked their way across deep crevasses and through the deadly Khumbu Icefall; when the mountain was finally behind him, Erik knew he was going to live. His expedition leader slapped him on the back and said something that would affect the course of Erik’s life: “Don’t make Everest the greatest thing you ever do.” No Barriers is Erik’s response to that challenge.

In 1559, 49 Spaniards exploring a tributary of the Orinoco River reached a sheer-sided, cloud-capped mountain called Tepui Zupay. When they tried to climb it, all but six were slaughtered by Amazons. Or so claimed Friar Sylvestre, the expedition's chronicler. But Sylvestre made many bizarre claims: rivers of blood, plants that lead to gold. Jerry Pace, a burn-scarred botanist struggling for tenure at UCLA, thinks the friar was delusional. Jerry's best friend, the historian who just acquired Sylvestre's journal, disagrees.

A journey into the deepest, darkest jungles of the Venezuelan Amazon...and a primeval place and time that mankind was never meant to exist in. Ben Cartwright, former soldier, home to mourn the loss of his father, stumbles upon cryptic letters from the past between author Arthur Conan Doyle and his great-great-grandfather who vanished while exploring the Amazon jungle in 1908. Amazingly, these letters lead Ben to believe that his ancestor’s expedition was the basis for Doyle’s fantastical tale of a lost world inhabited by long-extinct creatures.

A captivating, suspenseful adventure!
What did you love best about Whitewater: A Thriller?
The exquisite writing and passionate narration coupled with the wretched vulnerability of the main characters, makes this audiobook a gem! It will take you on an exhilarating whitewater adventure, full of action packed rapid runs, dangerous encounters, and blissful natural riverscapes. Right out of the gate you are picked up and plunked down right in the middle of a gripping tale that will have you in its clutches till the very end! Add to all of this a budding romance, with sprinklings of pearls of wisdom and spirituality, and you have an enthralling thriller!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Whitewater: A Thriller?
Do I have to pick one!?! There are so many to choose from! The most memorable has to be how the hero and heroine manage to escape via an impossible climb down a cliff. Their sheer guts and intense ferocity to overcome this plight is unforgettable!
Which scene was your favorite?
The scene at the flume of death where Adam and Tripnee, in cooperation with Dog, overtake the cartel goons and emerge triumphant against infinite odds!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Hold onto your paddle and take a wild river adventure that will leave you cringing and jubilant at the same time!
Any additional comments?
The beauty of this audiobook is the way William masterfully draws you into the majestic world of whitewater river running with heavy doses of thrilling encounters with cartel danger. The narrator keeps you marvelously entertained with his stunning ability to capture high points with verve and vigor!
