About This Audiobook

Hold Fast is a gripping, no-holds-barred journey into the sordid underbelly of the internet, as told through the rise and fall of Backpage.com. This isn't your typical true crime tale; it's a meticulously researched expose that peels back the layers of a digital Wild West, where anything goes and no one is quite who they seem. What sets this audiobook apart is its dual narration, with Trevor Aaronson and co-narrators Sam Eifling and Michael Mooney each bringing their unique voices and perspectives to the story. It's like having a panel of investigative journalists in your ear, making for a dynamic and engaging listen.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to Hold Fast felt like being on a rollercoaster ride through the seedier side of the web. Aaronson's narration is steady and assured, like a guide leading you through a dark alley, while Eifling and Mooney provide welcome shifts in perspective, each bringing their own style and insights to the story. The pacing is excellent, balancing intricate detail with forward momentum, keeping you on the edge of your seat. The only critique I have is that some of the technical jargon could have been simplified for the average listener. But overall, Hold Fast is a compelling listen that will make you question what's really happening behind your screen.
