Knife Music (by David Carnoy) app for iPhone and iPad

KNIFE MUSIC by David Carnoy (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

“Knife Music is a tense cat-and-mouse thriller, but with real heart.” (R. J. Ellory, award-winning author of A Quiet Belief in Angels)

Tense and twisting, Knife Music is the story of a forty-three-year-old surgeon, and self-described womanizer, struggling to clear his name after being accused of raping and causing the suicide of a young girl. It all leads up to the most stunning surprise ending since Scott Turow’s “Presumed Innocent.”

Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling on a tiny screen. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves.

NOTICE: This app includes the exact same 5-star recording offered elsewhere at much higher prices. It was professionally recorded by Blackstone Audio’s Audie®-winning narrator, Kristoffer Tabori. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here.

“Impressive…surprisingly complex and sophisticated.” (ForeWord)

___________________
Tense and twisting, Knife Music is the story of a doctor struggling to clear his name after being accused of raping and causing the suicide of a young girl. The novel pits Ted Cogan, a forty-three-year-old surgeon and self-described womanizer, against Hank Madden, a handicapped veteran detective. From the outset it’s not clear who is victim and who is victimizer, as the usually dispassionate Madden grapples with his long-suppressed prejudices and his obsession with bringing Cogan to justice at any cost. It all leads up to the most stunning surprise ending since Scott Turow’s “Presumed Innocent.”
