A Quaint New England Town

De: Gregory L. Norris

Narrado por: Kathy Handrock

When Ezra Wilson took the job as a census worker, he never imagined it would lead to a place like his latest assignment. From the moment he turns off of the interstate and travels past the village limits, it becomes clear that Heritage isn't just some quaint New England town.

A sinister encounter at an automobile graveyard is only the start. In Heritage Proper, a town divided down the middle both politically and literally, Ezra is met with hostility on both sides of an imposing brick wall that separates warring factions that have maintained a fragile peace.

After scaling the wall into Heritage North, Ezra discovers a beautiful young woman held prisoner in a fortified basement room and promises to help her. To do so will expose the last of the small town's dark secrets and lay bare big planetary dangers if Ezra survives his visit to a destination where even the white picket fences are not at all what they appear to be.

a fun little bizarro story

A Quaint New England Town by Gregory L. Norris wasn't at all what I expected. A story about a census taker going to a town no one seems to go to and for good reason. This story was a fun little bizarro horror that, while somewhat predictable, still didn't quite go the way I had expected. This is one of those stories you can knock out in a sitting and not get bored. It took no time to get into the weird.

The narration by Kathy Handrock had some issues but not enough to take away from the story. There was some background fuzziness, and she sounded farther away than I'm sure she was from the mic. Again, this didn't take away from the story, I just know technical issues sometimes bother audiobook listeners. Regardless, she kept my attention through the entire story and did a good job narrating it.

I received this audiobook for free in return for an honest review.
