Skeleton Run

By: John L. DeBoer

Narrated by: Sean Patrick Hopkins

Twenty years ago, four teenage boys left a baby behind in a crushed car after they caused the tragic accident that took the mother's life. Ever since, they've guarded the secret that would've ruined their lives and destroyed their future careers. But when one of them succumbs to illness, a blackmailer makes contact, and the survivors realize that, somehow, someone else knows. Now, everything that matters to them is at stake.

Las Vegas billionaire Wendell Logan is pursuing the role of political kingmaker, and he's selected his unsuspecting king: Alan Granger, governor of Pennsylvania. Granger confesses his closet skeleton to Logan, but the tycoon has invested too much time and money into Granger's future presidential campaign to let him and his old friends endanger Logan's power play.

It's time to run.

Guilt trips are a bummer.

I received this audiobook from Audiobook Boom in exchange for my honest review.

4 guys lives are followed in this gripping tale. I like what John did to develop these characters along the way. It really shows what guilt does to people and the way they handle it.

Liked the aspect that it followed a political theme and some of the things that happen behind the scenes. If you never thought about politics and the way it is done, read this to enlighten you. It will explain a lot.

Just enough to keep you listening

The book wasn't great, but it was good enough to finish, but it didn't answer the primary question in my mind. There were also a few "fluff" items that were very well written and would probably get an A in a college descriptive writing class, but seemed out of place compared to the rest of the book. It's one of those things where if I was reading it, I probably wouldn't have noticed, but at least for me; things stand out more in audiobook.

Skeleton run

If you could sum up Skeleton Run in three words, what would they be?

SKELETON RUN is a well written storyline of mystery and suspense. The premise will keep your attention until the very end.

Better than expected

What a perfect political thriller. I enjoyed every moment of this audio book from the first death all the way to the last. This was one of those audio books that I just couldn't stop listening... found myself up late at night not wanting to turn it off. Narration was perfect for the story and all its characters.

This audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review. Thank you Audiobook Boom.

Great book 4.5*

Skeleton run is a wonderful book.

I absolutely love the premise! In this book you watch 4 men grow up with unimaginable guilt. You see how each of them deals with it differently and how it has affected them.

This is a gripping and powerful story that truly makes you think.

The narration is top notch too. It kept me hooked all the way through and I loved the characterisations!

Definitely worth a read!
