Editor's Review ★★★☆★

AudioBook Atlas

Suzanne Toren’s narration brings 'Queen of Thieves' to life with a deep, resonant voice that perfectly captures Marm Mandelbaum's complex character. The story zips along at a fast pace, revealing Marm's rise from humble beginnings through her cunning and ruthless business tactics in the 1920s and 30s. However, the narration occasionally wavers with some overly melodramatic moments that detract slightly from the overall experience. Despite this, the audiobook remains highly recommended for fans of true crime and biographical storytelling who are fascinated by organized crime's notorious figures.
