Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Jim Frangione's narration is nothing short of remarkable—his tone is both measured and intense, perfectly capturing the gravity of the events described in Scott Helman’s 'Long Mile Home.' The pacing is expertly managed, allowing for moments of breathless tension without losing sight of the broader narrative. While the book excels in its detailed reconstruction of the bombing itself, a few sections on post-bombing recovery feel slightly rushed and could have benefited from more depth. Nonetheless, this audiobook remains an essential listen for anyone interested in the Boston Marathon bombing or how cities unite in the face of tragedy.
