Night Fall

By Nelson DeMille
Read by Scott Brick

     DeMille's latest suspense novel is a provocative, suspenseful ride, and it all begins with an erotic lovers' tryst. While having sex on a beach, illicit lovers catch a terrorist act on film. If they weren't having an adulterous, career-breaking affair they could turn the tape in, but they are, so they run. During the investigation, witnesses tell the government about seeing a missile just before a plane went down over the Long Island coast. Chances of the crash being caused by a missile are eventually dismissed.

    Five years later, John Corey of the Federal Anti-Terrorist Task Force (ATTF) attends the Flight 800 memorial service with his wife Kate, an FBI agent who worked on the investigation. She feels there is more to the case. While at the service, Corey is warned off the old case, but it's enough to send him headlong into his own investigation. Soon he's at the hotel where the lovers were last known to be five years ago. The deeper he digs into the case, the more flack he receives from those in the FBI and CIA. So what is Corey dangerously following, a five-year-old urban myth or a cover-up?

   The twists are tight, the storyline plausible, and the characters racy. The one thing the readers can expect from Night Fall is the unexpected. DeMille can celebrate another bestseller.

    Audie-award winner and actor Scott Brick narrates the audio book version. His composed, calculated reading enhances the tension-building moments. Brick also reads The Lion's Game and Up Country.

     Readers' will get a nice surprise at the end of this audio version -- a lengthy, informative interview with DeMille.
