Paso Robles, CA, August 14, 2009 --(PR.com)-- It is unusual for a debut novel to be selected for audiobook release. It is even more unusual to hear it through the voice of an award-winning narrator of many New York Times best-selling authors. Andrew Peterson's First to Kill is an unusual novel that blends well with Dick Hill's dramatic and powerful style. Listen to the prologue at http://andrewpeterson.com/Newsletter/FTKaudio_listen.html.
Initially released by Dorchester Publishing as a mass-market paperback in September 2008, First to Kill’s strong sales and positive reader feedback prompted development of the audiobook by Audible.com. First to Kill spent several weeks on Audible’s best seller list.
Dick Hill, the voice behind Lee Child's Jack Reacher novels, offers high praise: “Peterson’s First to Kill is the real deal. I have the great pleasure of recording some of the best authors around… so believe me when I say you damn well better lock and load when you pick up this book.”
When asked about Dick Hill’s participation in the project, Peterson said, “I literally wrote First to Kill with Dick Hill’s voice in mind, so I was floored when he announced he’d narrate it.” Peterson is currently finishing the second in a series of Nathan McBride novels.
A first-time author, Peterson is donating 50% of his proceeds from First to Kill to the San Diego Museum of Man's summer camp program, helping underprivileged kids find an alternative to drugs and gangs. Additionally, Peterson has donated more than 1,500 of his books to deployed U.S. Military units and hospitals around the world. “It’s just something I need to do,” said Peterson. “I owe them more than I can ever repay.”
About the book/audiobook: When a deep-cover FBI agent disappears, along with an enormous cache of powerful explosive, former marine sniper, Nathan McBride, finds himself caught between a ruthless adversary with a blood-chilling plan and federal officials who will stop at nothing to see their own brand of justice done.
Unabridged. Audio Length: 12 hours and 42 min.
About the author: Andrew Peterson is a novelist, volunteer firefighter, helicopter pilot, scuba diver, and expert marksman. He currently lives in Central California.
