À propos de cet audio
Suburbia. Shady, tree-lined streets; well-tended lawns; and cozy homes. A nice, quiet place to grow up. Unless you are teenage Meg or her crippled sister, Susan.
On a dead-end street, in the dark, damp basement of the Chandler house, Meg and Susan are left captive to the savage whims and rages of a distant aunt who is rapidly descending into madness. It is a madness that infects all three of her sons and finally the entire neighborhood. Only one troubled boy stands hesitantly between Meg and Susan and their cruel, torturous deaths. A boy with a very adult decision to make....

Highly Recommend!
This was not the story I was initially expecting, but once I started it, I listened to the whole thing in one sitting. It was incredibly heartbreaking, but an interesting look at the process of "grooming", both from the victim's perspective and the perpetrator's. There were a few unanswered questions that permeated the story, but there was enough hidden detail to allow you to come to those conclusions on your own. Do not start this if you are expecting a light mystery, it has some pretty heavy themes, and may be triggering to some people. Carefully consider it before you start, but if you do, it will not disappoint

Decent book
A little stupid when you know the real story and what these girls went through but overall it was a good fiction

Deeply Unsettling but Engaging
I knew this book was going to make me squirm, but I think it takes the cake for being the most disturbing book I've ever read. I had a terrible nightmare about one of kids once, and felt deeply unsettled for days. This book had the same effect...so be forewarned. With that said, the characters were engaging, the story was well written, and the author did a decent job of narrating. He kind of has that almost lazy, casual style. Would definitely recommend to the right reader, but absolutely gut wrenching.

Good book sad story
A truly heartbreaking story. Well written and well narrated.
It was a good book but the story was troubling.
I enjoyed it but it was sad. I however loved the ending.
It’s the first book I ever read that is narrated by the writer.
Will read more from this writer.

Heart racing and breaking all at one time.
It’s very suspenseful and down right heartbreaking. I loved the book and hated it all at the same time. Have a strong heart before you read.

Disturbing
This book was so hard to get through. I kept going because I wanted to get the final justice in the end. I’m actually hurt.

Horrific story
The book is well written, and flows fine. It gets fairly intense at the climax, and I’m curious as to how much of the story if fiction. It’s loosely based on a true story from what I gather. Yet it’s written and narrated in a first person perspective account, and does so quite convincingly I thought. It built a good deal of suspense.
I suspect the narrator and writer is a smoker and the rare crackle noise is his lungs. It could be something else, but it’s certainly not some hard candy in his mouth as one reviewer stated. It’s barely noticeable, and if not for the comment I probably wouldn’t have noticed it. It’s certainly not frequent or annoying.

Amazing Build-up
For a shorter novel the author has done an amazing job at building tension and showcasing the very real realities of escalating abuse.
narration is great especially since it's also done by the author.

Disturbing
I was not expecting the story to unravel the way it did, and at times I wanted to just stop listening, but I had to know the outcome. Listening to the story from the David’s point of view, rather than the victim’s makes it so much more disturbing and sad and…. sick. But overall I thought it was a good book, well written and narrated.

Amazing narration of a difficult book
I’m not sure how this book got into my Audible library. I will say that the late Jack Ketchum narrates it himself and he does an amazing job; and truth be told, this is an amazing book. It’s just too much. Growing up with an abusive father, it triggered so many things and quite frankly, I only finished it because I refuse to DNF anything. The whole ordeal left me sad, and numb…and haunted.
