Jury Master

De: Robert Dugoni

Narrado por: Robertson Dean

David Sloane is the best wrongful death attorney in San Francisco. He's a lawyer who can make juries do anything. But despite his professional success, he's plagued by a nightmare of a childhood he cannot consciously remember. When he receives a package from a White House confidant who then turns up dead by apparent suicide, the contents reveal a history he never could have imagined. Now, in search of justice, Sloane must depend on two men he's never met: Charles Jenkins, a former CIA agent turned recluse who suffers the same nightmare; and Tom Molia, a police detective willing to take on just about anyone, including the U.S. Department of Justice. Together, these men must expose a 30-year conspiracy so insidious that it may reach as far as the Oval Office and topple a presidency, if they can stay alive.©2006 Robert Dugoni (P)2006 Books on Tape

Reseñas de la Crítica

"All of Dugoni's characters have a fresh and believable edge, and there is plenty of action in far-flung settings." (Publishers Weekly)
"The action keeps coming, so omnivorous thrill seekers who favor Martini and Grisham may want to give Dugoni a look." (Booklist)

Had to remember to breathe!

If you could sum up Jury Master in three words, what would they be?

Fast-paced action; compelling characters; twists and turns that kept me glued to my headphones. Glad to discover another great mystery writer!

Great listen!

Loved it! First time listening to this author. It was a page turner. Will look for more by him.

Enjoyed the story

I hadn't heard of this writer. I look forward to more of his work.

GREAT START TO A PROMISING SERIES!!!

I'm such a fan of Robert Dugoni! All of his novels are different and exciting. When I begin one, I just can't stop listening. David Sloane is a fascinating main character in this series. I've just started this particular series but I can tell you that if this novel is a good representation of what's to come, I CAN'T WAIT. I enjoyed listening to Robertson Dean which was a first for me. I see that the narrator has changed in the second release. I can only hope that he's as good as Dean.

At this point, I can't recommend the entire series but I certainly can say that based on this first novel, I'll be shocked if it disappoints.

Jury Master

Excellent book, I love the Sloane character, full of action, and suspense. I look forward to reading the next book.

As always I let a family member read it on my Kindle while I listen to Audible version.

Excellent narration.

I would highly recommend this book.

Outstanding listen

Mr. Dugoni makes a long hot walk/run pass painlessly. Highly recommend the story and how it evolves.

Action! Action! Action!

This book is certainly full of action and short chapters. I usually love a book that has both. But this one bothered me. There were so many characters and so MUCH action that I found it hard to follow. I did a lot of "rewinding". Each chapter told a different part of the plot and it got confusing.
I also found the ending abrupt and left unanswered questions for me.

Action-packed book deserved better narration

I found this book difficult to get into.The storyline was compelling and suspenseful, and the characters were interesting, but the narration by Robertson Dean was mind-numbing. When listening to an audio book, I find distinctive voice characterizations a necessity. They distinguish the characters and help provide clean breaks from one scene or chapter to the next, especially in novels like this one which contain a lot of action and cut-scenes.

More than a few times, I found myself wondering who was speaking since the same voice is used for most characters, male and female alike. It also seemed as if character voices changed from time to time based on the different mix of characters in a scene.

So, while I thoroughly enjoyed the book itself, which was literally non-stop action, I would suggest giving the sample audio a listen before adding it to your cart.

Based on the story alone, I would definitely listen to another Robert Dugoni book providing it was read by a different narrator.

Excellent story. Held my attention from the start

Super good. One slight error though: since when is it ever hot and humid in Mexico City?

AWESOME

Love all Robert Dugoni's work and Robertson Dean is an excellent narrator! Don't stop with just one. They are all great!
