About this listen

John Shannon is on the run, facing life in prison or death by lethal injection. Then, a bizarre text message draws him to a meeting in the dark of night. A foreigner who calls himself the Identity Man offers Shannon an incredible chance to start again: a new face, a new home, a new beginning.

Soon Shannon is living a life he never dreamed possible. In a ruined city that is trying to rebuild, he finds work as a carpenter and a wood carver. He falls in love. But just as Shannon is within sight of redemption, all hell breaks loose.

It turns out the city is crawling with corruption. There are crooked politicians, gangsters, dirty cops everywhere—and all of them seem to want Shannon dead. Moving through the darkness in the burnt-out shambles of a dirty town, he's got to ferret out the secret of his new life.

It was Good.

I enjoyed this audiobook. As of late Andrew Klavan has become my favorite author. I especially like it when he narrates his stories. Normally I can't pause the book but not so much this time. There wasn't anything particularly wrong with it, the characters were as interest as usual, the stakes were just as high and the unravoling of the mystery just as fun but I didn't have the same obsessive listening as I normally do with his stories. I'm not sure why that was, probably more to do with me than anything else. Either way it's worth the read but if you weren't enchanted with it check out his other titles like Dynamite road, werewolf cop and a killer in the wind, those are my favorites.
