Acerca de esta escucha
This is a short story about the events that happened during a vacation in the South in the life of Jo Danning, a retired military linguist. She and her son, Casey, spend time with her grandmother while odd events unfold that surround a nearby house beside her grandmother's garden. Something evil is under the ground; something wicked from the past.
Jo Danning only wanted to get to Wilmington, North Carolina as soon as possible. She wanted to start her new life with her son, Casey.
Only one thing stood in her way: That house on Dakota Street
In this short story, Rae T. Alexander tackles racism and discrimination as Jo Danning discovers her fantastic gifts that enable her to solve crimes and at the same time touch another dimension of existence.

A 1937 vintage camper trailer half hidden in weeds catches Lynne McBriar's eye when she is visiting an elderly friend, Ben.

But after each remodel, sleeping in the trailer lands Lynne and her daughter Dinah in a previous decade - exciting, yet frightening. Glimpses of their home town and ancestors 50 or 60 years earlier is exciting and also offers some clues to the mystery of Ben's lost love.

Historia
Everyone in the quiet Jersey Shore town of Silver Bay knows the story: on a Sunday evening in September 1991, Ramsey Miller threw a blowout block party, then murdered his beautiful wife and three-year-old daughter. But everyone is wrong. The daughter got away. Now she is nearly eighteen and tired of living in secrecy. Under the name Melanie Denison, she has spent the last fifteen years in small-town West Virginia as part of the Witness Protection Program. She has never been allowed to travel, go to a school dance, or even have internet at home. Precautions must be taken at every turn, because Ramsey Miller was never caught and might still be looking for his daughter.

Historia
From Charlaine Harris, the best-selling author who created Sookie Stackhouse and her world of Bon Temps, Louisiana, comes a darker locale - populated by more strangers than friends. But then, that's how the locals prefer it. Welcome to Midnight, Texas, a town with many boarded-up windows and few full-time inhabitants, located at the crossing of Witch Light Road and Davy Road. It' s a pretty standard dried-up western town.

Historia
People are drawn to libraries for all kinds of reasons. Most come for the books themselves, of course; some come to borrow companionship. For head librarian Kit, the public library in Riverton, New Hampshire, offers what she craves most: peace. Here, no one expects Kit to talk about the calamitous events that catapulted her out of what she thought was a settled, suburban life. She can simply submerge herself in her beloved books and try to forget her problems. But that changes when 15-year-old, home-schooled Sunny gets arrested for shoplifting a dictionary.

Great narrator!
While the publisher's blurb has merit, I found that the overriding lesson is that being/remaining ignorant has nothing to do with education or travel.
Another facet of Valerie Gilbert's talent shows up here in her voice as a young boy educated in the UK!

That House yep we had one too...
I enjoyed this reading of that house on Dakota Street. I found the reader had an interesting voice and the ability to differentiate characters easily. The story about a single mother and her child returning to her childhood home, takes unexpected turns.

Great Introduction
A short introduction to this series, Jo Danning and her son go back to her childhood home. With the death of grandmother, she inherits the house on Dakota Street along will all it's myths and truths. The journey to Jo's new life begins now with the discovery of her abilities and discrimination that surrounds her. This is a great beginning and makes you want to listen to the next installment.
Valerie Gilbert brings this story to life with an array of voices. From Jo, to her grandmother to her son(with a British accent) as well as a variety of supporting cast, Valerie is able to draw you into the scene of this childhood home. There are still some answers we need, and am happy that Valerie will be narrating the series.
