Storm of Suspicion

The Karen Read Murder Trials

De: Kevin Lenihan

Narrado por: Kevin Pierce

STORM OF SUSPICION: The Karen Read Murder Trials is both an electrifying, real-time courtroom thriller and the gripping personal account of author Kevin Lenihan’s detailed examination of the evidence—both known and what he’s discovered—as well as the dark rumors, courtroom bombshells, and conspiracy theories that are at the heart of two of the most explosive and controversial murder trials of the decade.

The case began in the midst of a massive snowstorm in 2022 and ended the first time in a mistrial. Now, more than two years later, it is poised to ignite in a Boston courtroom once again.

At question is whether Karen Read, a 43-year-old college professor, is responsible as charged for the cold-blooded murder of her boyfriend, John O’Keefe, a Boston police officer? Or was she framed, by the real killer—another cop—covering his tracks with the help of a corrupt law enforcement establishment?

In STORM OF SUSPICION, Lenihan, the COURT TV expert commentator in the case, breaks down the key evidence and shocking conspiracy theories from the first trial. Then he does a deep dive into how the new trial will be fought by both sides, as well as in the court of public opinion, with new revelations, unanticipated twists, and a storm of suspicion.

The knowledge of the writer

Great author, he was done his research. It explains all research from all perspectives, great read to understand this crime.

Excellent facts and analysis

Kevin did a plethora of research here. Impressive. He has an excellent podcast. Don’t miss it.

Unreasonable doubt

A well researched, well told account of how a hit and run death becomes twisted into an unbelievable tale of murder.
It’s amazing, gripping, sad and disturbing all at once.

The truth

Excellent read. Honest, to the point, and thoroughly investigated, I realized how much that money is a huge motivation for spewing non truths. Humanity is such a disappointment at these times. Thank you Kevin

Loved it! Binged it!

Engrossing story and impressive writing. I loved how the author looped in other interesting cases and his own story. I also appreciated subtle quips of appropriate humor. I’ll be looking for another audiobook from this author on other cases he covers, or perhaps a sequel as this cases evolves.
The narration is read a bit fast for me, as the narrative is packed with information. I found myself backing up several times to make sure I didn’t miss or misunderstand anything that was being read.
