Richard Doetsch writes compelling fiction that his fans can't get enough of. In The 13th Hour, a man travels through time in one-hour increments in a desperate attempt to pinpoint and change the one moment that could prevent his wife's murder. It's also his last chance to clear his own name—because he's the prime suspect. "Brilliantly conceived, perfectly executed. Fresh, exciting, bristling with originality. I only wish I had thought of it first."—Steve Berry, NYT best-selling author

      At the start of Doetsch's tricky thriller, an innocent man, Nicholas Quinn, is in police custody, suspected of murdering his wife, Julia, at their house in upscale Byram Hills, N.Y. Then a stranger gives Nick a watchlike device that allows him to change the past by sending him back, one hour at a time, for half a day. When Nick goes back in time, he discovers single events are the result of a complex web of causes. Saving his wife means untangling a plot that includes a robbery committed by corrupt cops, a horrendous plane crash and a mysterious family secret. Julia's fate seems to be inevitable, one way or another, and Nick's tampering brings death to friends and allies along the way. At times Doetsch (The Thieves of Faith
      ) oversells Nick's anguish with breathless prose, and no character emerges as more than a cardboard cutout, but readers will enjoy the clever razzle-dazzle of a story whose parts fit together like clockwork.

      Dennis Boutsikaris is an excellent choice to deliver Richard Doetsch's thriller. The listener follows protagonist Nick Quinn as he travels back through one day, an hour at a time, attempting to alter events and ultimately prevent his wife's death. This tautly written story reveals its twists and clues in sixty-minute segments as Quinn makes advances and mistakes in his race with death. The pace builds with every passing hour, and Boutsikaris successfully employs his narrative skills to deliver the tension and drama. Between Doetsch's writing and Boutsikaris's performance, the listener will find it difficult to stop listening. M.O.B. (c) AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
