Third Degree (Thorndike Press Large Print Basic Series) - Hardcover

Greg Iles was born in 1960 in Germany, where his father ran the U.S. Embassy medical clinic during the height of the Cold War. After graduating from the University of Mississippi in 1983, he performed for several years with the rock band Frankly Scarlet and is currently a member of the band The Rock Bottom Remainders. His first novel, Spandau Phoenix, a thriller about Nazi war criminal Rudolf Hess, was published in 1993 and became a New York Times bestseller. Iles went on to write numerous bestselling novels, including Third Degree, True Evil, Turning Angel, Blood Memory, The Footprints of God, and 24 Hours (released by Sony Pictures as Trapped, with full screenwriting credit for Iles). He lives in Natchez, Mississippi.

Theres a lot more to this story than first meets the eye--or ear. As suggested by its title, Iless latest tells what happens when a husband, suspecting his wife of infidelity, imprisons her at home and grills her to get her lovers name. Listen awhile to David Colaccis thoughtful reading, and youll hear a solid story about courage and faith that is punctuated by an ever-increasing measure of excitement and suspense. Colacci is adept at differentiating the multiple characters and delivers a solid performance. As the plot moves from standoff to confrontation and revelation, Colacci adroitly builds a seething atmosphere. A.L.H. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
