Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

Virtual Voice nails the gritty tone of 'The Devil in the City,' delivering performances that are both authoritative and chilling. The narrative zooms through the events with a relentless pace that keeps listeners on the edge of their seats. Donovan’s meticulous research ensures every detail feels authentic, making the story as much about New York itself as it is about the killer and cult. While the first half may feel slow to some, the latter part is unputdownable. Minor critiques include occasional jumps between perspectives that can momentarily distract from the flow but overall, this audiobook is a must-listen for true crime aficionados.
