Some Choose Darkness Audiobook by Charlie Donlea: A Tangled Web of Unsolved Mysteries and Dark Revelations
As the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky with shades of twilight, I nestled into my favorite armchair in the solitude of my home office. The world outside quieted, but within the walls of my sanctuary, a different kind of silence settled—one filled with anticipation for the unraveling mysteries that awaited me in Some Choose Darkness by Charlie Donlea. This moment was a daily ritual, where I traded the pen for headphones, embracing my love for storytelling from the other side.
The story begins with Rory Moore, a forensic reconstructionist with an uncanny knack for solving cold cases. Her latest challenge is to unearth truths buried decades ago—a task that requires her to sift through layers of darkness and deception. As Rory delves into a case long thought dormant, we’re transported back to 1979 when a merciless killer claimed five lives without leaving a trace.
Charlie Donlea’s meticulous attention to police procedural details ensnares you—it’s as if he had been a shadow at every crime scene, documenting each whisper of evidence. This precision is characteristic of his work; I’ve felt it before in The Girl Who Was Taken and Summit Lake. However, at times this thoroughness teeters on overwhelming, stretching taut the nerves like piano wires tuned to suspense.
As Rory peels back the veneer on what was once considered an unsolvable case, she discovers connections that were previously overlooked. Angela Mitchell had tried to assist law enforcement all those years ago before she too vanished without a trace. Now, as Angela’s supposed murderer nears parole—with many killings left unattributed—Rory is compelled to complete what others failed to finish using clues left behind by her late father.
Nina Alvamar’s narration is impeccable—her clear voice cuts through the complexity of the narrative like a beacon in foggy waters. While her tone may not be laden with overt emotion, it complements the story’s tenor perfectly, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in Rory’s quest for justice.
For fellow audiobook aficionados seeking this gripping thriller without financial strings attached, Audiobooks4soul.com offers Some Choose Darkness as both an auditory experience and a downloadable treasure—free of charge. It’s platforms like these that fuel my passion for sharing stories and continue to revolutionize how we indulge in literature.
In closing, Some Choose Darkness is more than just another mystery; it’s an intricate puzzle where each piece reveals another shadowy corner of human nature. As I remove my headphones and step away from Rory Moore’s world of unsolved crimes and dark pasts, I can’t help but feel a connection to her relentless pursuit—the same drive that once fueled my own writing career now inspires my journey through narratives such as these.
Until our next auditory adventure,
Stephen
