Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to A Jacket Off the Gorge is like being on a wild, white-knuckle ride with a master con artist. Elisabeth Lagelee's narration is nothing short of exceptional, her ability to capture Jon's youthful bravado and later, his growing desperation, is truly impressive. The pacing is breakneck, with Ashline's tight, suspenseful prose driving the story forward at a relentless clip. The production is minimalist, allowing the story and performance to take center stage. My only critique is that at times, the sheer number of Jon's schemes can become a bit overwhelming, but that's a small price to pay for such a thrilling listen. This isn't just a true crime story, it's a masterclass in deception and a fascinating exploration of the human psyche.
