Historia
In this first episode of the Stan Turner Mysteries, it's the tail end of the Vietnam War, and Stan, forced into the United States Marine Corps by a vicious twist of fate, must leave his wife and family, and report for duty. On his first day of boot camp, he unwittingly befriends a serial killer and soon finds himself on trial for the murder of his drill sergeant. Aided by a pretty nurse who wants him, and a reporter who wants his story, Stan desperately searches for the actual killer to prove his innocence.

Haller is a Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense pro who operates out of the backseat of his Lincoln Town Car, to defend clients at the bottom of the legal food chain. It's no wonder that he is despised by cops, prosecutors, and even some of his own clients. But an investigator is murdered for getting too close to the truth and Haller quickly discovers that his search for innocence has taken him face to face with a kind of evil as pure as a flame.

terrible reading, good story
The performance was so unappealing I almost didn't finish the book. The only thing that kept me going was the interesting story. I wish I had read the book instead.

Listeners beware!
I felt as though I was listening to a fifth grader who was adept at word attack skills but had absolutely no comprehension of what he was reading. After listening for two hours, I could take no more. I hate that I bought two books in this series. I would surely have purchased neither if the previous reviewers comments had been posted. I'll NEVER buy another book that has not been reviewed.
This is a shame because the premise of the story was interesting and William Manchee is probably a good writer. I might look for the book at the library & read it the old fashioned way.

Terrible reading
This is the worst reading of an audiobook I've ever encountered. William Timnick sounds like he's so concerned about pronouncing each word correctly that he completely forgets to include any inflection. The result is a completely robotic reading. And his voices for the characters are so poorly done that I had trouble keeping track of who was supposed to be speaking. It actually sounds like it could be an interesting story, but the reading is so terrible that it's hard to tell, and impossible to enjoy.

A Fine Reader
I’ve listened to hundreds of audio books and William Timnick is right up there with the best of them. He has many different voices that make it easy to distinguish one character from another and is quite pleasing to listen to. I don’t understand those who criticized him so harshly, particularly when they could have listened to an excerpt before they made the purchase.

BORING!
If you can get past the reader, it might have been a good story. It sounds like someone tried to have a computer read the book. Each word is so precisely enunciated, not like a person telling you a story. Consequently the flow of the story is all chopped up. I also didn't like the use of "Oh God" and "Oh Jesus" every other sentence. It was disrespectful and totally unnecessary. I stopped listening after the first half hour. Don't waste your credits on this one.
