Few listeners will come away from this audiobook without feelings of outrage and disgust. The government program with the cute title—Fast and Furious—was definitely linked to the murder of a Border Patrol agent as well as the unprecedented number of gun-related killings in Mexico, but no one in the Obama administration has admitted that the program providing gun sales to Mexico was incredibly inept. Pavlich has unearthed documents that could lead to criminal charges against Department of Homeland Security secretary Janet Napolitano and Attorney General Eric Holder and the defeat of Barack Obama in November.
VERDICT There is much more to be written about Fast and Furious; it will remain as one of the vilest undertakings of any President. Reader Emily Durante presents this damning chronicle in a clear, modulated voice that greatly adds to the understanding of this important information. Listeners will certainly feel at least one of the words in the title. Recommended for all public libraries. [The Regnery hc was a New York Times best seller.—Ed.]
