She claims the feeling is mutual...until she frames Calvin for murder and blackmails him. The price? Not much.

An army of monsters walks among us, hidden in plain sight. They're fast. They're strong. They're unrelenting. And they only want one thing: The shitty gas station at the edge of town. Coming as a surprise to absolutely no one, Jack - night-shift clerk and local crazy person - has found himself neck-deep in the middle of yet another world-ending terror. And this time around, nobody can be trusted. Not that tough-as-nails cop who probably knows a lot more than she's letting on. Not the adorkable new employee who might be something far less innocent than she appears.

No one messes with your head better than Jeff Menapace
This was one of my favorite of Jeff Menapace’s work! It’s both graphic and hilarious! If you haven’t bought everything this man has written, you are missing out BIG TIME!! He has a super fun way of telling stories and having the characters do what I’ve been screaming at every horror movie character to do in the last 20 years! Lol and it’s SO SATISFYING WHEN THEY DO IT! Buy everything he’s written and I know you will love it as much as me! Also Jeff Hays is born to read Jeff Menapace’s books. Together they are a dream team!!

“The Hunt”+”The Truman Show”= “CLICHE”
This was a well-preformed audiobook. My only complaint was that it was too short and over too soon. Jeff Hays and Annie Ellicott do an PHENOMENAL performance with this one. I was deeply impressed how smart and quick-witted Calvin was (the main protagonist). “CLICHE” is when you combined “The Truman Show” with “The Hunt”. I loved the story and the performance. Jeff Menapace wrote an awesome story, and I can’t wait for more.
