Story4 out of 5 stars 1
After his divorce, Hunt Jackson decides to start over in Tucson, where an old buddy fixes him up with his wife's friend, Beth. The attraction is immediate, and they're married a few months later. But Hunt's happiness is marred by his bizarre encounter with an insurance agent whose insistence that Hunt increase his coverage sounds, incredibly, like a threat. The agent - tall, gaunt, oddly dressed in an old-fashioned suit and fedora - is himself a menacing figure.

Story5 out of 5 stars 2
Brad Woods has performed a lot of autopsies, but never one like this. The body is purged of all blood. Fear has made Sue Wing run from the darkened school and into night, a fear so powerful she can only name it using the Cantonese myths of her grandmother: Cup-hu-girngsi, the corspe who drinks blood. Reporters like Rich Carter don't believe in the supernatural, but all the signs are pointing to the same conclusion: a vampire is stalking the streets of Rio Verde. No, Rich Carter doesn't believe in such things. Not yet.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 8
In the small town of Montgomery, Arizona, Kyle Decker's book shop is barely breaking even. When a bank opens in the empty storefront next door, he hopes the new establishment will bring in more foot traffic. Trouble is, nobody has ever heard of the First People's Bank, and the local branch has appeared mysteriously overnight. Their incentives for new customers seem reasonable...at first. But is it a coincidence when Kyle's wife has her identity stolen and his son receives emails that seem to know his private thoughts? Or when the manager of a competing bank dies a gruesome death?

Barry and Maureen have just been approved as tenants by the Association. Pity they never read the fine print on the lease. It could be the death of them....

Publisher's Summary
Daniel Martin has never forgotten his childhood encounters with Frank Watkins, the man who built his family a summer home out of cardboard and plywood. Frank's gaze was oddly confusing, as if he was attempting to discern the proper way to behave because he didn't know how to respond in a human manner. Since Frank obviously wasn't an alien, young Daniel thought maybe the man was crazy. In the end, Daniel would learn the terrifying truth about Frank Watkins. And as an adult, Daniel is about to discover there are more of them out there.

Characterisation
Good characterisation and not a bad storyline. Some moments of having to suspend reality but it works.

OMG AMAZING & SCARY
OMG this had me from the get go.
So creepy, I would sometimes play it back to go over what I thought I heard, that I actually had heard correct.
It was so good.
Narration by Chris Andrew Ciulia, was spot on.
Could easily listen to this book again.
Thanks to you both

gave this one a go because it's a freebie. at the start i was like, "ok... here we go, another predictable story..." but then it got really interesting! the story is not always linear, which is refreshing! very well written and excellently narrated, definitely give this one a go!

Thriller
Loved it! Reminiscent of Stephen King, in the way the story has layers and gets into your head.

Started well but too long
I was enjoying the story until about the last two chapters. I felt that the happenings within the final house were too stretched and repetitive which unfortunately switched me off from active listening. This caused me to have to replay the final five minutes twice to check how it ended.

Don't hire Frank
I thoroughly enjoyed this story, I wanted to keep on listening. The back story of Daniel and Frank were always intriguing , Frank was a great villain. The ending was good enough. Graphic, sinister, sad,scary and enjoyable at the same time

Convoluted and poor choice of narrator
A rambling, mildly suspenseful story that is severely detracted from by the narrator, who sounds like he is reading to 5-year-olds. Convoluted and pointless in some areas.

Will ruin the name Frank for you.
A solid start which seemed promising, but struggled to keep engaged the further the story went.
The phrase “wet blood” seems superfluous.
Not a huge fan of the change of perspective from Daniel to other characters in the second half of the story.
Unnecessary graphic r*pe scene.
The chapter from Randy’s perspective made me want to scream WTF
Another unnecessary historical r*pe in one characters ex-wife.
Could be about 4 hours shorter.
Continues to be so over the top, found myself agreeing with the words of the narrator “that’s just stupid”.
