The body in question / Jill Ciment, read by Hillary Huber, 173 pgs.
A jury is picked for a murder trial. It is fairly grisly and they are sequestered. Jurors C2 and F17 start an affair but try to keep it secret. Does this make them less effective as jurors? C2 is a photographer and has doubts about the accused. F17 is a doctor who seems convinced. The rest of the group is a rag-tag bunch not detailed enough in the story. The relationship between C2 and F17 then C2 and her husband is a bigger story than the trail itself. A satisfying thriller. Hillary Huber is the perfect narrator here. At times detached and emotionless but able to play each part to perfection.
