Description
Porter Wren makes a living sifting through the debris of New York's most sensational crimes. He's searching for the twist the beat reporters missed - the illuminating irony or romantic detail that adds meaning to the relentless wreckage of human appetite and folly. Devoted to his wife and children, he protects them behind a wall of electronic security devices and unpublished phone numbers. But mix in a beautiful widow, an unsolved murder, and Wren's own need for risk - and answers - and it adds up to a gripping tale, performed by Tony Award-winning actor John Rubinstein.

ISBN: 155927994X
Category: Mysteries, Thrillers, Suspense
Keywords: Manhattan, Bill Wyeth, Havana, Room
Author: Colin Harrison
Publisher: Audio Renaissance
Length: 5 hours and 31 min.

Description
The Havana Room is the tale of a man who falls from the heights of power and wealth in New York, and finds himself in a dangerous and potentially lethal state of affairs. Bill Wyeth is a successful real estate attorney in his late thirties with a wife and son, who, by the merest chance, loses everything: family, job, status. Unmoored and alone, Wyeth drifts toward the city's darker corners. Restoration seems unlikely, redemption impossible. Wyeth finds refuge in an old-time Manhattan steakhouse and is intrigued by the manager, Alison Sparks, who is sexy, complicated, and independent in all ways. She also controls access to the restaurant's private bar. This is the Havana Room, and what goes on in there, he's told, is secret. In that room he may find the key to his redemption, if it doesn't kill him first.
