Title: The Dynamite Room Subtitle: A Novel Author: Jason Hewitt Narrator: Will Thorp Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 03-30-15 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: It was all her doing. She had cried wolf, and the wolf had come. It's July 1940, and 11-year-old Lydia has just run away from life as a child evacuee in Wales. She arrives in her English village, gas mask in tow, only to find it abandoned. Her family's house is shuttered and empty, the windows covered by black-out blinds - but Lydia settles in, determined to wait there until they return. Late that night he comes: a wounded soldier, gun in hand, heralding a full-blown German invasion. There are, the man explains, certain rules that Lydia must now follow. He says he won't hurt Lydia, but she cannot leave the house. As the unlikely pair coexists in the claustrophobic confines of the house, each becomes dependent on the other for survival. But when Lydia tries to uncover what brought the soldier to her door, she realizes that he knows more than he should about her family - and that he's plotting something for them both. Eerie, gripping, and piercingly sad, The Dynamite Room brings a strikingly original and contemporary resonance to the great tradition of war classics. It shrinks the global theater of history's most devastating war to a game of cat and mouse played out in a single house - resulting in a moving portrait of war and how it affects soldiers and citizens alike. Critic Reviews: "Suspenseful and powerful. A novel of great humanity that exposes the absurd contradictions of war." (Samantha Harvey, author of the Orange shortlisted/Booker longlisted The Wilderness) "An effective psychological drama between two extraordinary characters. Claustrophobic, touching, character-driven, and told in lovely prose.... Readers who loved The Boy in the Striped Pajamas will have a strong affinity with The Dynamite Room."(Katie Ward, author of Girl Reading) "Clever and unsettling, this most unconventional of war stories had me totally gripped." (Shelley Harris, author of Jubilee)

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 11 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: When Thomas Alva Edison asks for information, most feel compelled to give it. Not University of Washington professor Benjamin Bradshaw. Not when the question concerns a device conceived in anger and harnessed for murder. Bradshaw hopes the mysterious invention remains lost in Elliott Bay, eluding the search of deep-sea divers. But when, on a cold December morning in1903, an electrician is found dead in the men's wear window of Seattle's Bon Marché clutching a festoon of Edison's holiday lights, Bradshaw suspects a dangerous game has been set in motion. Greed, passion, silence? Motives multiply as the dead man's secrets come to light. Bradshaw and his investigative partner Henry Pratt join Seattle police detective James O'Brien to narrow suspects, but Bradshaw's intuition fails him. His heart is elsewhere, his attention distracted by the dilemma of loving a woman he cannot marry without defying his faith. With Christmas fast approaching, the pressure mounts, as does Bradshaw's dread that this will be his first unsolved case. With no other option, he does the unthinkable and prepares to face his greatest fears. Whatever the outcome, there will be no going back.
