"The Coldest Case: A Black Book Audio Drama”
By James Patterson, Aaron Tracy and Ryan Silbert, performed by a full cast, including Aaron Paul, Krysten Ritter, Nathalie Emmanuel, Beau Bridges, Alexis Bledel and Mark-Paul Gosselaar. Unabridged, 4 hours. Audible Original, $29.95 or included with membership, $7.95 a month.
True confession: I’ve never been a fan of the Patterson entertainment factory, where he sets up the vision and hires others to flesh it out. But this Patterson production — more cinematic show than audiobook, complete with excellent sound effects — is nonstop entertainment from start to finish.
