Crusher

by Niall Leonard
Hennepin County Library audiobook 6 discs
read by Daniel Weyman
genre: YA mystery adventure

This was pretty intense! Finn Maguire is a dropout working a crappy job at a fast-food place with a pinhead boss. When he comes home from work one day, he finds his dad dead. Things go from bad to worse when the cops see him as the prime suspect, he gets tangled up with organized crime, and people betray him. Poor kid! There were a few little bright spots, but mostly it was a dark story. Definitely worth listening to, though. Finn is a believable and likable character. Weyman's vocal work is superb.
