What to expect
A mysterious death...
A town reluctant to know the truth...
And one man determined to find it.
When a young man's body is found near a remote northern California town sprawled over jagged rocks at the base of a seaside cliff, the authorities dismiss the death as an accident or suicide. But there are suspicious circumstances surrounding the tragic event. Sent to investigate, San Francisco reporter Arnold Rednapp soon discovers that the boy's unorthodox beliefs had turned a large section of the small town against him, leading the journalist to suspect a community-wide conspiracy to hide the truth of what happened. Rednapp's suspicions are hardened when he himself receives anonymous threats...
Critics Review
-
“With its full-cast performance, this enjoyable audiobook brings to life the challenges nonconforming teenagers face when they espouse unpopular views…Narrator John Chancer’s excellent performance captures Rednapp’s inquisitiveness and the easygoing style he uses to obtain answers…The full cast provides an excellent complement to Chancer’s performance, creating a memorable group of townsfolk.”
