From AudioFile:

This mystery is a classic T. Jefferson Parker offering (circa 1991), revived by David Colacci's reading. Thanks to Colacci, it stands the test of time. A former deputy sheriff is called in to investigate his sister's murder after her body is found near a beach in Orange County, California. When a witness reports having seen a police vehicle near the scene around the time of the murder, law enforcement officers become suspect. Is the killer one of the ex-sheriff's former associates, or someone with another agenda? Colacci gives this story a brisk reading. His logical-sounding voice is pleasant. He differentiates his characters well and is especially convincing in the female and older male roles. A.L.H. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
