About this listen

The President of the United States needs to kill the First Lady’s secret lover…and it’s not about sex.

First Lady Elizabeth Caen can't believe what she just overheard: the President of the United States is planning a shocking assassination. With no hard evidence to back her claims against her powerful husband, she faces the nearly impossible task of revealing the dark conspiracy to the world. She must do something...but what?

She’s forced to turn to the only man she can trust: her secret lover Owen, a respected Silicon Valley computer guru. What Elizabeth doesn’t know is that by night, Owen transforms into a criminal hacker extraordinaire, making millions taking down corporations by exposing their dirty secrets. No computer is safe from him. Not even the president’s. But what Owen digs up is far more shocking than they could have imagined.

Powerful forces are unleashed to stop Owen and Elizabeth. Will a daring escape on Owen's high-tech sailboat give them enough time to expose the murderous conspiracy?

This was like reading WSJ

One of my good reviewers, gave this a glowing report and I like this narrator. See Victor‘s comments. However, this author is not for me. I should’ve read the regular book reviews as well because if I had I would not have purchased. This book is not entertainment as far as I’m concerned. It is a literary commentary on today’s sad political situation. I have wasted a credit and it grates on me a bit. Not even a reader l enjoy can save this read for me. I should have been alerted when it had only one review. I have been spoiled by Reviews from Shelly and Wayne recommendations.
Were my comments of help?

Captivating political thriller

Affairs of State is a brand new, thrilling, fast-paced, and entertaining political thriller from rising author C.A. James and his award-winning narrator Timothy Andrés Pabon.

As a huge fan of legendary authors of the genre like Tom Clancy and Robert Ludlum, I found Affairs of State to be a gripping narrative experience that kept me entertained and interested long into the night.

The story pulled me in right away as it follows First Lady Elizabeth Caen as she discovers a shocking conspiracy involving the President of the United States. With little evidence to back her claims, she faces the most impossible task of revealing the dark truth to the world. Her only friend in this dangerous mission is Owen, a Silicon Valley computer guru who leads a secret double life as a hacker.

But, as always with stories like these, it seems that the two of them have bitten off more than they can chew, so their lives are now in peril as they are hunted by unknown actors. The technical terms related to hacking add an extra layer of authenticity and immersion, making the cutthroat world of powerful politicians and corrupt individuals both terrifying and fascinating.

With over 500 audiobooks to his name, seven Earphone Awards, and as a nominee for both the prestigious Audie and SOVAS Awards, actor and bilingual narrator Timothy Andrés Pabon is the perfect choice for this audio production! He has been seen on House of Cards as Mark, a White House press correspondent, so I guess that he felt right at home recording this story.

His narration is outstanding, balanced, and pitch-perfect. He reads, he acts, and he infuses the story with emotion and urgency.

For anyone who enjoys political thrillers, Affairs of State is not to be missed. The plot is intriguing, the characters are well-developed, and the action moves at a perfect pace. If you’re looking for a captivating story that will keep you on the edge of your seat, this audiobook is a great choice.
