Resumen del Editor
Some would call Detective Benny Griessel a legend. Others would call him a drunk.
Either way, he has trodden on too many toes over the years ever to reach the top of the promotion ladder, and now he concentrates on staying sober and mentoring the new generation of crime fighters: mixed race, Xhosa, and Zulu. But when an American backpacker disappears in Capetown, panicked politicians know who to call: Benny has just 13 hours to save the girl, save his career - and crack open a conspiracy which threatens the whole country.

Frieda Klein is a solitary, incisive psychotherapist who spends her sleepless nights walking along the ancient rivers that have been forced underground in modern London.

Alex Morrow is not new to the police force - or to crime - but there is nothing familiar about the call she has just received. On a still night in a quiet suburb of Glasgow, Scotland, three armed men have slipped into a house, demanding a man who is not, and has never been, inside the front door. In the confusion that ensues, one family member is shot and another kidnapped, the assailants demanding an impossible ransom. Is this the amateur crime gone horribly wrong that it seems, or something much more unexpected?

Liked the story- interesting South Africa take
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I liked the story and would recommend it...... but, and this may have been only on my recording, the last few minutes didn't download and the story ended playing before it was finished.
Have you listened to any of Simon Vance’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I hadn't heard Simon Vance narrate before. It took me a while to get used to his voice and accent, but found him enjoyable to listen to.
Do you think Thirteen Hours needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
Yes, there are a few lose ends that could be followed.

A window into urban Africa
I enjoyed the dialog in this story, learned a bit about the culture in South Africa and was brought on an exciting ride as the drama played out in this crime story. At times I felt that the character develpment became drawn out, but in the end I think I appreciated it. The story is built along believable lines and events were described well and brought the reader into the complicated world of the detective, who is heroic without being superenatural in any way. The dialog is well done and after a wihile you begin to enjoy the banter with all the local slang that is expressed between the seperate South African cultural factions.

Outstanding audiobook
I've never listened to an audiobook twice, but I listened to this one twice in 6 months. The plot moves quickly, but it's the characters and their stories that drive the book. The author is a superb storyteller, and I found myself engrossed in the histories of the individual characters and impatient to find out what happens to each. In addition, the politics and culture of the "new" South Africa are complex and fascinating. The narrator does a great job with the voices and accents, which makes the book come alive. Altogether my favorite recent audiobook.

Outstanding in Every Way
For some reason, this one has sat in my library and I even started it once and never finished it. Until this week. WOW! Outstanding. Interesting, compelling, intriguing, and informative. I've already bought another of Deon Meyer's works on Audible and have it queued up for tomorrow.

Really worth it
Any additional comments?
My first book by Deon Meyer. Listening...is a little difficult at first to follow the characters because of their strange sounding names, but you catch on quick enough. The performance is really outstanding and well done...Vance really makes you feel you are there. The story, as the title implies, takes place over 13 hours. Tension and drama from the get go. The police work is top notch and realistic. Excellent characters and character development. I'm often critical of this type novel because they don't deliver...this one does.

Great
My first Deon Meyer mystery; it won’t be my last. There are some aspects of South African society that were a little disconcerting at first (for example, the odd structure of the police force). But the suspense is great and the characters are compassionately drawn. A very convincing portrait of the struggles of an ex-drinker.

Action packed thirteen hours
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. The narration was excellent in differentiating each character, to the point you could imagine each person easily as they spoke. The story is a fast paced double murder investigation, with a frantic manhunt to find a young college student on the run for her life. You come to love the main character Benny, the investigator in charge of finding the girl, as along the way we hear of his own personal struggles in his tormented life. It takes place in South Africa, so at times the names of characters are hard to follow, if you aren't personally acquainted with the dialect, but that comes back to the perfect narration, as he pronounces everything as it show be.

Deon Meyer = Excellent writer
Again, I was facinated by the story, the characters and the writer's attention to detail.

Tension would make this a Great Movie
My second Benny Griessel book, Thirteen Hours would make a great movie! Lots of excitement, clock ticking down to "save the girl," and too many clues to make the police who dunnit easy to solve. I enjoyed it more than book one, and loved getting to know BG.
I still struggle a bit with social issues in South Africa, but they are becoming clearer.
The narrator is perfect!
