Narrator

About the book

***FINALIST, Best Male Narrator - 2023 Audie Awards***

"Very rarely do I read a book so unique and gripping it makes me wish I had thought of it! Narrator is that book-a psychological thriller in which author Landon Beach crafts his love letter to storytellers in a novel so compelling you will be thinking about it, gifting it, and discussing it for years to come. In both its written and audio formats, Narrator is a masterpiece."

-Jack Carr, former Navy SEAL Sniper and the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the James Reece Terminal List series

By the time playwright and actor Shawn Frost had won 2 Tony Awards by his late twenties, he was seen as a theater prodigy-a meteoric rise that the performing arts community had not witnessed in almost a hundred years. His work? Shakespearean in scope, character, and popularity-boundless and beautiful. His own character? Flawed.

And in a place like New York City, where failings get magnified, Shawn Frost finds that, even from the heights of artistic sublimity, no one is insulated from the demons that have caused the best of entertainers to fall from grace.

After surviving an accident that almost costs him his life, Shawn leaves NYC and the theater for the quiet, picturesque Pacific cliffs of Carmel-by-the-Sea and starts a new life as an audiobook narrator. As he rises through the ranks, narrating bestseller after bestseller, Shawn Frost once again flirts with artistic immortality.

But. As his limitless skills emerge in the exploding arena of voice arts, so do his flaws.

Then, he experiences every audiobook narrator's worst fear: He is kidnapped by two obsessed fans, determined to make Shawn perform their novel...

Or was he?

Don't miss this one-of-a-kind psychological thriller from #1 Bestselling Author Landon Beach.
