FDR Drive

By: James Comey

Narrated by: Cassandra Campbell

After a stint in the private sector, working at the largest hedge fund in the world, Nora Carleton has returned to her former role as a New York City federal prosecutor. And she's arrived just in time to face one of the most dangerous domestic terror attacks in the history of the city.

A threat is building in the city, with far right extremism powered by internet demagogues and funded by shadowy organizations. Together with legendary investigator Benny Dugan and aided by colleagues at the FBI, Nora builds a case against the key players in this burgeoning movement, arguing before a jury that some speech is actually a deadly crime. But the menace taking root is far bigger than any courtroom, and as the militants target an upcoming United Nations rally, Nora and her team must race to disrupt the plans and minimize casualties.

At once a fast-paced legal thriller and a close look at the very real perils of political extremism, FDR Drive harnesses former FBI director James Comey's life experience to tell an authentic and compelling narrative that listeners won't soon forget.

Great Story

A great read well with gearing!! I found it fascinating and timely. I found the narrator a bit too cutesy for an Assistant U S Attorney but overall she did a very good job.

This is an exceedingly well crafted book, timely in this dark time in our history and written by a true American hero!!

whew! breathtaking!

Listening to this was so much better than watching the news...though it parallels the news in so many ways!

Start with book one, See helpful Shelly review

I bought book 2 and three and they are good stories. The narrator It’s not my favorite as her voice is not that deep, but Benny’s character is outstanding and in the scenes he is in he steals the show. For backers of the mega movement this book won’t appeal to them, for Patriots who want a true Democratic system it’s good. Book is timely and reflects the thoughts of today.
Where my comment of help?

action , which is not to say what I liked the most

liked the plot, but some of the humor was a little amateurishly "too cute by half."

Great crime and legal novel.

The characters were great and well thought out. I love the plot on all three novels.
