Never Far Away is the latest heart pounding action thriller from award-winning and New York Times best-selling author Michael Koryta. The story follows a woman and estranged mother who, at the beginning, lives a quiet and secluded life after she is placed in witness protection by the federal government.

But, when a tragic event forces her to come out of hiding in order to take care of the children she had to abandon a long time ago, things get heated up and really complicated.

Filled with the same level of attention to details, brilliant writing, vivid characters and fascinating scenarios, Never Far Away keeps the listener entertained and on the edge of their seat for the entire 12 hours duration of the audio production.

One of the best and respected narrators in the audiobooks industry, Robert Petkoff delivers another superb performance with Never Far Away. He keeps the action going, the story flowing and at the same time he manages to bring all the lifelike characters into sharp contrast in the listeners’ mind.

His performance is so good that at times I was really freaked out by the unsettling lines of dialogue. Robert Petkoff makes you forget that at least half of this story should have been narrated by a female actor. Yes, he is that good!

Gripping from the first chapter, superbly written, vividly portrayed and immensely entertaining, Never Far Away is one of the best stories I experienced so far this year! It seems that the spell of author and narrator always delivers the highest amount of quality content for their millions of fans.
