Doppelgangster [Dramatized Adaptation]

Esther Diamond is an actress in New York with more auditions than paying roles. To cover rent between jobs, she sings while waiting tables at a Manhattan restaurant run by the mob. One night she witnesses a gangland hit.

The dying man insists he saw his own doppio just before the shooting. A doppio is a perfect double, and it is a notorious omen of death. Soon more duplicate wiseguys begin appearing around the city.

Esther turns to her friend Max Zadok, a mage who is 350 years old and whose day job is guarding New York from Evil. Together they have to learn what is behind the doubles before a gang war claims the wrong victims. Connor Lopez, a skeptical cop, is drawn into the trouble alongside them.

This is the second book in the Esther Diamond series, here in a GraphicAudio full-cast dramatization. A full voice cast and sound design replace a single narrator. The tone stays wisecracking and edged with noir, mixing mob crime with magic, and the question driving it is who the duplicates are meant to kill.
