Murder Among Friends by Candace Fleming, Read by Angela Dawe
True Crime Listening for Teens
Every Monday through Friday, AudioFile’s editors recommend the best in audiobook listening. We keep our daily episodes short and sweet, with audiobook clips to give you a sample of our featured listens.
With the talents of narrator Angela Dawe, Candace Fleming’s extensive research and strong writing in Murder Among Friends propel listeners through an account of the 1924 murder committed by teenagers Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb discuss this YA true crime audiobook that explores the lives, relationships, and motives of the two teenagers and their hopes to pull off the “perfect crime.” The story is disturbing, and Dawe’s narration is gripping.
