Private detective Olivia Welles hasn’t been to her hometown since childhood, not since the night she died. She has no memory of the world before the car crash, or of coming back to life in the morgue. But now, years later, when fellow survivor Bonnie Ray calls from a Kansas jail begging for help, Olivia feels the tug of a dark and unremembered past. Bonnie looks guilty of murdering her young son—the third child to die under suspicious circumstances. Intrigued and seeking closure, Olivia agrees to investigate.

Publisher's summary
What do a warehouse, a farm, a wedding, a trip to the grocery store, and a beach vacation have in common? They are all everyday settings where, if everything goes right, nothing awful happens.
However, sometimes bad choices reap bad outcomes. Come take a side trip to a farm where the laundry may be hiding a secret from view. Or maybe visit a nice beach, with a possibly foreboding name. And do you really know what lurks in the abandoned warehouse around the corner?
These five stories ask you to take a walk in the shoes of people you could encounter every day and observe how one bad decision can make a good day bad and a bad day so much worse.

It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.

It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.

Nate doesn’t want to listen. He’s between missions and just wants to relax, not to travel hundreds of miles and hunt for the driver of the car that hit someone he doesn’t even know. But ignoring the call is not an option. What Nate had hoped would be a simple mission turns into something much more sinister, when he discovers a wide-reaching evil, festering in a small Northern California town. To confront it, he will need all the skills he’s learned working in the shadow world.

When the pandemic hit, nobody was expecting it to be as bad as it was. The economy barely survived the lockdowns, but it staggered along until civil unrest shattered people’s hope of better times to come. With it being an election year, more and more Americans were waking up to the idea that they truly were behind the curve. The hope was if they did not get sick, run out of money, or could avoid violent mobs, they would be fine.

Very Engaging!
Normally I'm not one for short stories but these were great! Very well written to the point of being believable (which intensified the fear factor). The narration was excellent. Ms Gambino-Harris's narration was exceptional. She was able to keep a steady pacing and at the same time convey the intense emotions associated with the stories as well as keep the listener engrossed!
I definitely would listen to another novel written by the author as well as another by this talented narrator.
