Nothing More Dangerous by Allen Eskens

5.0

I think this is truly one of those books where listening to the audio version was a great choice--the voice actor did a great job of painting the auditory picture surrounding Boady and his story. Listening to the forward, I was struck with the fact that Eskens started this book years before finally publishing it. This read like a perfectly steeped cup of tea--he gave the characters and plot time to age and meld and came up with a truly poignant tale. Was it somewhat predictable? Yes--there was clearly a savior-figure who needed redemption and there were clearly wrong-doers who needed punishment. However, the predictability of what was to come in the final pages did not take away from the pages in between. This was a tale that needed telling in a time that needs to hear it.
