Gone Again

A Jack Swyteck Novel, Book 12

By: James Grippando

Narrated by: Jonathan Davis

In this electrifying and fast-paced tale of suspense from the New York Times best-selling author of the acclaimed Cash Landing, Cane and Abe, and Black Horizon, Miami criminal defense lawyer Jack Swyteck takes on his first death-row client since The Pardon in a case as twisty as it is shocking.

Sashi Burgette vanished three years ago on her way to school. The night after the teenager's disappearance, ex-con Dylan Kyle was stopped for drunk driving. An article of Sashi's clothing was found in his truck, and a police videotape of his drunken explanation under interrogation sealed his fate at trial. Now, just days from Kyle's execution, Sashi's mother visits Jack Swyteck, who's doing pro bono work at the Freedom Institute, and delivers shocking news: "Sashi called me."

The police dismiss the call as a cruel hoax. The state attorney refuses to consider the new evidence, insisting the case is closed. The governor has already signed the death warrant. An innocent man may be executed, and time is running out - unless his lawyers can locate Sashi.

A man of principle who believes in justice, Jack jumps into the investigation. But the deeper he digs, the more he discovers that nothing is what it appears to be. Not the victim. Not her alleged killer. And definitely not Sashi's parents, whose grief ruptured their marriage, each openly blaming the other for what happened to their daughter.

As their gut-wrenching and hopelessly conflicting version of events unfolds in a Miami courtroom, it becomes clear there is something even more difficult to find than a long-missing girl....

The truth.

I am so hooked on Jack Swyteck

James Grippando has created a character that had captivated my interest. Keep the stories coming. Jonathan Davis is the perfect narrator.

great read!

loved it, kept me on the edge of my seat through the entire book, must read!

Would have been a fair short story...if edited.

Very boring story line. Nothing like I remember his previous books. Returned it partially read.

Great narrator

A great book with a great narrator. It makes the difference. I would definitely listen again

"Cruel"

Would you listen to Gone Again again? Why?

sorry, but I own over 150 new stories not yet heard, so no not in the near future.
This was a compelling story about a girl whose cruel/ autism spectrum actions caused so much heartache in so many other peoples lives.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

You, just didn't know who to believe. This aspect kept you glued to the listen. In my opinion the editor should have reduced the number of times the name "Sashi" was said. Frankly, it got on my nerves. The author may have used it to keep you tuned into the missing girl.

What does Jonathan Davis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I love Mr. Davis reading talent. See Sandra Brown's Mean Streak, not to be missed. (I did re-listen 2 x's) As a result of that read, I have tried so many new author's, including this author, just for the opportunity to hear Mr. Davis read.
He doesn't disappoint in this book.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes, I did, what a long day! With all the twists and turns, I wanted to know. I did use the new 1.25x speed so the action matched the author's intent.

Any additional comments?

Please Audible, this is not an author I like a lot, but I just don't get enough Jonathan Davis choices to listen ( Mr. Davis does lots of Sci Fi) so I am forced to buy this author just to get a chance to hear Mr. Davis read. He is that good.

Good read!

Gret story and great performance. I don't feel like the story stalled. Miss more Theo him or though.

Great for a long road trip

I got this book to listen to on a vacation trip... I must say it made the drive much more exciting! I was very happy with this purchase. it had me engaged from the very beginning all the way until the end it was a lot of action lots of twists and turns.

THRILLING STORY

Would you consider the audio edition of Gone Again to be better than the print version?

NOT SURE. I ONLYE BUY AUDIO

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED WAS THE MOST INTERESTING ASPECT.

What does Jonathan Davis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

HIS VOCALS ADD DEMENSION TO STORY

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

THE STORY TELLING IS GOOD. THE PLOT IS GOOD. I ONLY FELT SAD BECAUSE I LIKE THE FINANCIAL TIDBITS TO THE STORY. IE EMBEZZLEMENT, PUNZI SCHEME ETC
