Free Interview with Jeffery Deaver, author of Edge and The Burning Wire

By: Jeffery Deaver

Length: 14 mins

Publisher's summary

Jeffery Deaver discusses his latest book, Edge, as well as the story tellers that inspired him, his love for audiobooks, and his research methods.

About Edge:
Behind the well-known U.S. security organizations—the FBI and CIA among them—lies a heavily guarded, anonymous government agency dedicated to intelligence surveillance and to a highly specialized brand of citizen protection.

Shock waves of alarm ripple through the clandestine agency when Washington, D.C., police detective Ryan Kessler inexplicably becomes the target of Henry Loving, a seasoned, ruthless “lifter” hired to obtain information using whatever means necessary. While Loving is deft at torture, his expertise lies in getting an “edge” on his victim—leverage—usually by kidnapping or threatening family until the “primary” caves under pressure.

I really enjoyed Jeffery Deaver's admission that with audiobooks it is often the reader/actor's interpretation of the book that brings it to life. All authors who wish to have their books in audio format should listen to this interview!
