Publisher's summary

Listeners are calling Mother "disturbing", "vividly chilling", and "on par with the likes of Edward Lee and the darker side of King and Hill".

A house with a past hidden in a swamp....

A woman who would do anything to have a child....

An ancient evil that still haunts the woods....

Arielle Reigns has it all: a loving husband, a beautiful home, a successful business. She has everything, except what she wants most...a child of her own. But a horrible mistake in her past makes her unable to conceive.

Or so she thinks.

This all changes when a mysterious stranger in a swamp promises that she can help Arielle conceive. That she can guarantee it. But as with all guarantees, this one comes with conditions, specific criteria that must be met....

Arielle should have known better.

Arielle should have considered the consequences.

Arielle should have stayed away from the swamp.

Arielle should have realized that nothing is worth her sanity...or her life.

From the author of the best-selling Insatiable series comes a terrifying new novel of despair, desperation, and desire. Grab your copy of the supernatural thriller Mother today!

Be careful what you wish for....

Stick with it!

I had some problems listening to the narrator at first. He was a bit dramatic for me and there was a lot of mushy sex moments within the first hour that I skipped over (ugh boring), but as the book
kept going the more MESSED UP it got. It almost made me puke at one point! Bravo!

creepy fun

This was a dark yet compelling storyline. I very much enjoyed the protagonists and the vague backstory, it made me interested in what motivates the characters.

Worth It

Not my usual style and I could have done without the sound effects, but I enjoyed this book. I found this author because the narrator is one of my favorites and he did a wonderful job, as usual. I would be inclined to listen to the rest of this series if the author makes it available via Audible. I would recommend this book if you are into horror.

Weird story, but it kept me entertained

This book started off slow, but took off towards the middle and never stopped. Some of the parts were borderline gross, but I couldn't stop listening. This is my second series from Patrick Logan, the first being Insatiable. I read the prequel to this book, Witch, and it really made this one more interesting. I couldn't stand the main character, she was just off her rocker with her emotions for the whole first half of the book. I was a little disappointed that some of that fury didn't come out more when she was facing off with Mother. This was a great listen and I highly recommend to those who don't have weak stomachs.
