Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Will Patton’s portrayal of Clete Purcel is nothing short of masterful. His narration not only captures the character’s rough edges but also his soft moments, creating a nuanced listening experience. The story delves into the murky waters of crime, corruption, and redemption with an unflinching gaze that keeps listeners on edge until the very end. Despite some slow pacing in certain sections, 'Clete' ultimately delivers a satisfying narrative that highlights the enduring friendship between Robicheaux and Purcel. The production quality is top-notch, but a more dynamic musical score could have added another layer of atmosphere to the already intense scenes.
