The System
Summary
"Seven narrators convincingly portray a dozen characters.... By the surprise denouement, the listener is fully invested in their stories, and conflicted about a system that only occasionally metes out justice." (AudioFile Magazine) An electrifying, multi-voiced thriller tackling our criminal justice system, from the writer Michael Connelly has called “one of our most gifted novelists”. On December 6, 1993, a drug dealer called Scrappy is shot and left for dead on the lawn outside her mother’s house in South Central Los Angeles. Augie, a heroin addict, witnesses the whole thing - before he steals all the drugs on her person, as well as the gun that was dropped at the scene. When Augie gets busted, he names local gang members Wizard and Dreamer the shooters. But only one of them is guilty. A search of Wizard and Dreamer’s premises uncovers the gun that was used in the shooting, and a warrant goes out for their arrest. They know it’s a frame-up, but the word from the gang is to keep their mouths shut and face the charges. With these two off the streets and headed for jail, Dreamer’s friend Little, the unlikeliest of new gang members, is given one job: discover how the gun got moved, and why. Played out in the streets, precincts, jails, and courtrooms of Los Angeles, Ryan Gattis's The System is the harrowing story of a crime - from moments before the bullets are fired, to the verdict and its violent aftershocks - told through the vivid chorus of those involved, guilty, the innocent, and everyone in between. A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux “Gripping, meticulously researched, and smartly plotted, I devoured this brilliant novel over the course of a weekend.” (Paula Hawkins, author of Into the Water) “Fascinating, moving, and so very, very real. It grabbed me by the heart and mind from page one and never let me go.” (Marcia Clark, author of The Final Judgment)

The Last Great Road Bum
Summary
"Narrator Pabón delivers a top-notch performance of Tobar’s masterful blend of fiction and nonfiction.... Pabón's understated delivery allows listeners to make their own discoveries in this truly unique and intriguing story." (Booklist) In The Last Great Road Bum, Héctor Tobar turns the peripatetic true story of a naive son of Urbana, Illinois, who died fighting with guerrillas in El Salvador into the great American novel for our times. Joe Sanderson died in pursuit of a life worth writing about. He was, in his words, a "road bum", an adventurer and a storyteller, belonging to no place, people, or set of ideas. He was born into a childhood of middle-class contentment in Urbana, Illinois, and died fighting with guerillas in Central America. With these facts, acclaimed novelist and journalist Héctor Tobar set out to write what would become The Last Great Road Bum. A decade ago, Tobar came into possession of the personal writings of the late Joe Sanderson, which chart Sanderson’s freewheeling course across the known world, from Illinois to Jamaica, to Vietnam, to Nigeria, to El Salvador - a life determinedly an adventure, ending in unlikely, anonymous heroism. The Last Great Road Bum is the great American novel Joe Sanderson never could have written, but did truly live - a fascinating, timely hybrid of fiction and nonfiction that only a master of both like Héctor Tobar could pull off. A Macmillan Audio production from MCD.
