Story
By the time playwright and actor Shawn Frost had won two Tony Awards by his late 20s, he was seen as a theater prodigy—a meteoric rise that the performing arts community had not witnessed in almost a hundred years. His work? Shakespearean in scope, character, and popularity—boundless and beautiful. His own character? Flawed. And in a place like New York City, where failings get magnified, Shawn Frost finds that, even from the heights of artistic sublimity, no one is insulated from the demons that have caused the best of entertainers to fall from grace.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind." Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Story
By the time playwright and actor Shawn Frost had won two Tony Awards by his late 20s, he was seen as a theater prodigy—a meteoric rise that the performing arts community had not witnessed in almost a hundred years. His work? Shakespearean in scope, character, and popularity—boundless and beautiful. His own character? Flawed. And in a place like New York City, where failings get magnified, Shawn Frost finds that, even from the heights of artistic sublimity, no one is insulated from the demons that have caused the best of entertainers to fall from grace.

Step into a world which is both magically fictitious and shockingly real, to follow the lives of Tamsin, Ellie, Arun, and Charlie; a refugee, native, occupier, and economic migrant. Watch them grow up during a halcyon past, an everyday present, and a dystopian future. And be prepared to be amazed. Inspired by the occupations of Palestine, Kurdistan, and Tibet, and by the corporate occupation of the west, Occupied is a haunting glance into a society which is too familiar for comfort. It truly is a unique piece of literary fiction.

Best Beach Book yet!
I absolutely loved 'The Blue Hour Sanction' by Landon Beach, and it has quickly become my favorite among his novels. I was extremely excited when the audiobook, narrated by Ms. Freeman, was released, and it did not disappoint. Ms. Freeman's performance was outstanding, providing a seamless narration that made it easy for me to follow, even during multitasking sessions—something crucial for my audiobook experience.
One of the standout aspects was Ms. Freeman's skill in character voice and dialogue. She brought the characters to life with subtle yet distinct voices, effortlessly capturing various accents. A notable example is her portrayal of Junius, where she seamlessly transitioned between his regular accent and a second one when imitating his idol, Richard Burton. The second accent sounded like a play off the first, which was a layer of depth I do not expect from most narrators.
Moreover, Ms. Freeman's reading conveyed passion and emotion, adapting her pace to match the intensity of the scenes. Tense moments were read with a quickened tempo, and the emotion was palpable, especially in pivotal scenes like when Rose Varga discovers who the mole is. Ms. Freeman's vocal inflections truly breathed life into the characters, allowing their personalities to shine through. Overall, her performance elevated an already gripping story, making 'The Blue Hour Sanction' a highly enjoyable listening experience.

Alias meets The Red Sparrow
There were so many twists and turns in the novel, I never guessed what was coming next!
Well done, Suzanne Freeman, who portrayed Richard Burton so well, I had to look up and watch “The Spy Who Came in From the Cold.” She did a spot on impersonation.
It was a true pleasure to listen to the story and I couldn’t wait to get back to it. I was genuinely concerned for the characters and their well-being.
Nicely done Landon Beach!

A Nail-biting Thriller!
The Blue Hour Sanction by Landon Beach is another book you can’t stop listening to. The 5 star narrator, Suzanne Elise Freeman, engages the audience immediately and her voice easily differentiates between the characters. She definitely brings the characters to life in this expertly written story within a story as only Beach can do. Tension builds throughout the entire book centering around a favorite character we first met in Huron Breeze, Adrienne Astra. In The Blue Hour Sanction we find out about her origin story. Astra takes on enormous physical and mental challenges using her athletic ability, determination and smarts to be hired by the Worth-Gideon Organization as its #1 assassin. She is now in a position to expose the lies, murders, and manipulations of those who own and work for Worth-Gideon and its competitor, Control. Lives are changed by acquiring new and secret identities leaving behind who they were forever. People are easily dispensed if not considered useful or they interfere with the reckless tactics to gain power and money. The reader gets completely absorbed and each incident is more thrilling than the last!
Landon Beach masterfully weaves all the characters together with ease. The suspense will captivate you and keep you actively listening for the next shocking event. One would never have a clue how Adrienne Astra began her journey! Listen to this award worthy book, The Blue Hour Sanction, to find out! Highly recommended!

Fabulous Narrator
I absolutely loved this book. Ms. Freeman did a great job to bring the various characters to life. To include proper pronunciation of the locales mentioned throughout the book. I know, maybe petty, but I appreciate someone invests the time to properly pronounce names and places.
Mr Beach wrote another page turner. I've bought every book he wrote, and enjoy them very much.
