About this listen

Young lawyer Parker House is on the rise - until his grandfather's mysterious past puts both of their lives in danger.

Parker House's secret inheritance is either his greatest blessing or his deadliest curse. The fresh-faced North Carolina attorney shares his German grandfather's uncanny ability to see future events in his mind's eye - a gift that has haunted 82-year-old Frank House through decades of trying to erase a murderous wartime past.

While Parker navigates the intrigue and politics of small-town courtroom law, Frank is forced to face his darkest regrets. Then a big career break for Parker collides with a new love he longs to nurture and the nightmares his grandfather can no longer escape. Sudden peril threatens to shatter not only Parker's legal prospects but also his life and the lives of those dearest to him.

Two witnesses, two paths, an uncertain future.

Must read

This book is well written. I couldn’t tell what would happen next. I love getting to know the characters, learn some history, and listen to a great reader. I highly recommend the novel.

More law and less religion please!

The law practice part of this story wasn’t bad. However, the religious part was insufferable.

Fantastic

As always with Robert Hitlow’s book, it touches me spiritually and makes me so great full that we are living after Jesus did the Inconceivably Agonising Work He did for any human being who will accept Him and His Work and follow him in discipleship

Why is this guy reading?

The story was good, but the reader/narrator was not. His voice inflections were unnatural. It was as if he was reading this in front of his junior high class and his teacher told him to use more voice inflection, so he did, but not at all in tune with what he was reading. I almost stopped listening several chapters in because of this, but the story had already gripped me enough that I simply had to grit my teeth and finish it.

Great Story! Terrible Narrator!

This story was engaging and the characters were very likable. The only problem was the narrator. Because he does not bother--or not know how--to have any sort of differences in his voice among the characters, everyone sounds exactly the same, read with the same monotonous tone and inflections, so unless the author gives a signal (such as, "he said" or "she replied"), you have no idea who is speaking.

Please fire Mr. McClure

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

If it was read by someone who had a clue about sentence parsing, intonation, pauses at obvious plot-line breaks, I'd absolutely recommend this book.

This is at least the 2nd Robert Whitlow book we have ENDURED with Mr. McClure as the narrator. Hire Adam Verner! He makes Charles Martin's books an absolute pleasure.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Heath McClure?

Adam Verner! He makes Charles Martin's books an absolute pleasure.

Any additional comments?

This was a good book. Not his best, but, apart for the narrator issues, a good story, backed by decent characters and a flowing storyline, despite many flashbacks. If you're not into hearing atrocities Hitler's thugs inflicted, then skip this one. Some are quite disturbing, even for baby-boomer era listeners.

Left me wanting more…

Great story told so well by the author. Lots of witnessing in the word of God and development of complex characters. So enjoyed the characters that I wanted to know more and keep them alive in my mind longer. Excellent read!
