When archivist Nadia Fontaine is found dead of an apparent drowning, Emily Snow is hired by Regents University to finish the job she started - to organize and process the papers of Raymond West, a famous Pulitzer Prize-winning author who has been short-listed for the Nobel. As Emily sets to work on the West papers, it begins to dawn on her that several items have gone missing from the collection. To trace their whereabouts, she gains unsupervised access to the restricted “dark archives”, in which she opens a Pandora’s Box of erotically and intellectually charged correspondence.

An elevated performance
Reviewed: 11-13-21
I bought the book because I liked the movie sideways. While it took me a minute to get into the story, the narrator kept me hooked with her performance. I don't think I would make it far reading the text because of its pacing, but the reader's precise enunciation makes it an enjoyable 1.75x listen.
