No Time to Hide

In this debut novel, Rob Palmer delivers an explosive thriller set against a backdrop of international arms smuggling, deception, spies, gunfights, military choppers spiraling out of control, a Cuban bomb, and nasty villains. L.J. Ganser delivers the narrative at a roller-coaster pace that delivers the action and keeps the tension at full throttle. Ganser's performance is so rich and varied that he sounds like a full-cast ensemble. There is Emile Balazs, a cutthroat high-stakes arms smuggler; Ben Tennant, a soft-spoken psychologist for the Federal Witness Protection Program; Patrice Callan, an elusive, dangerous, but strongly independent con artist; and Cherry, a child who sprinkles her conversation with Spanish expletives. Each characterization is so unique that it makes the listener want to stop all other activities and just listen. K.A.T. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
