Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Karen Allen’s performance in 'Running From the Law' is nothing short of brilliant. Her portrayal of Rita Morrone perfectly captures the character's sharp wit and tenacity, making the listener feel every victory and frustration. The narrative zips along at a breakneck pace, but also pauses to allow deep dives into the psychological undercurrents that drive the story. Specific moments stand out, such as when Rita faces off against her own inner demons, questioning whether she's just protecting someone undeserving or doing what's right. However, some scenes feel slightly rushed, particularly during complex legal arguments, which could benefit from a bit more detail. Despite this minor critique, 'Running From the Law' is an addictive listen that keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
