Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

The narrators' performances are nothing short of stellar; Susie Bright's voice is particularly compelling, adding a layer of authenticity that resonates deeply. The pacing is brisk but never rushed, allowing time for the intricate plots to unfold. Jessica Breheny’s 'The Watchman' stands out as a powerful tale, highlighting the moral ambiguity of Santa Cruz’s residents. However, some stories feel slightly disjointed, which could have been smoothed with tighter editing. Despite this minor critique, Santa Cruz Noir remains a must-listen for noir aficionados and anyone seeking to explore the darker corners of California's coast.
