Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Mike Iykins’ narration is nothing short of stellar, with a commanding voice that perfectly captures the tension of Timmerman’s revelations. The pacing is relentless, mirroring the speed at which the accusations are laid out, keeping listeners hooked from start to finish. However, some sections feel overly repetitive due to the sheer number of claims and counter-claims, which could be streamlined for greater impact. Despite this minor flaw, 'Shakedown' remains a compelling listen, offering a raw look into one of America's most influential figures.
