À propos de cet audio
In Death on the River, best-selling true crime author Diane Fanning recounts a tragic kayak accident that left one man dead - and his fiancee arrested for his murder.
A dream getaway. A real-life nightmare....
It seemed like the perfect romantic afternoon: a kayaking trip for two on the Hudson River. But it ended in tragedy when beautiful, blonde Angelika Graswald called 911 to report that her fiance, the handsome and athletic Vincent Viafore, had fallen into the choppy frigid waters. Authorities assumed it was an accident. But when the bereft bride-to-be posted videos of herself doing cartwheels on social media - shortly before Vincent's body was found - suspicions of murder rose to the surface....
After hours of questioning, Angelika made several shocking admissions. She said she felt "trapped" and fed up with Vincent's "demanding" sexual lifestyle: the nightlife, the strip clubs, the threeways.
"I wanted him dead," she had said, even though she insisted that she didn't kill him.
But as more lurid details emerged - including a $250,000 life insurance policy - a killer question remained: Did Angelika remove the plug of her fiance's boat...and knock away his paddle as he sank?

Meh. It Was Free, I Guess..
Why true crime author Diane Fanning chose this case for an in-depth documentary is baffling. The writing and presentation are fine (particularly the punctiliously accurate transcribed police interviews and trial testimony) - but nothing about this "I'll remove this kayak plug and hope he drowns" case is captivating. My mind wandered repeatedly.
Reader Callie Beaulieu compounds the problems in 'Death On The River' with an over-the-top voice-acting display. She overenunciates, reads too slowly, delivers a melodramatic tone.. and chooses a whiny "little girl" interpretation of passive-aggressive murderess Angelika Graswald that I found legitimately cringeworthy.
Altogether, this 4/10-star audiobook was suitable for droning on in the background while I did other things, but not much else. Even as a 'Plus' selection, it was a struggle to finish. If Audible asks for a Credit, you should laugh in their faces.
