Sleep Tight

De: J. H. Markert

Narrado por: Andi Arndt

The sole survivor of a serial killer might hold the key to stopping a new spree of murders in this propulsive horror thriller in the vein of The Black Phone and The Whisper Man.

Dark and twisting at every turn, fans of Catriona Ward will love this chilling new tale from the deviously inventive horror author that Peter Farris calls the "clear heir to Stephen King."

Beware the one who got away . . .

Father Silence once terrorized the rural town of Twisted Tree, disguising himself as a priest to prey on the most vulnerable members of society. When the police finally found his House of Horrors, they uncovered nineteen bodies and one survivor–a boy now locked away in a hospital for the criminally insane.

Nearly two decades later, Father Silence is finally put to death, but by the next morning, the detective who made the original arrest is found dead. A new serial killer is taking credit for the murder and calling himself the Outcast.

The detective’s daughter, Tess Claibourne, is a detective herself, haunted by childhood trauma and horrified by the death of her father and the resurgence of Father Silence’s legacy.

When Tess’s daughter is kidnapped by the Outcast, Tess is forced to face her worst fears and long-buried memories. With no leads to follow, she travels back to Twisted Tree to visit the boy who survived and see what secrets might be buried in the tangled web of his broken mind.

With captivating prose and an old-school horror flair, Sleep Tight is a must-listen haunting tale from a true master of the genre.

I realized I just wasted 11 hours of my life…

I usually do not write reviews because I don’t believe that authors should be subjected to reviews from people who don’t like their work even a little bit but WOW. This story was just absolutely terrible. The only thing saving this book is the narrator who is brilliant in accents in different voices for everyone, but man oh man. I hated this book. I feel like I wasted a good chunk of the last two days listening to it. The story is an absolute mess, all over the place, literally makes almost no sense in some chapters and it’s so dragged out and repetitive.
Unless you like boring books where the main character who’s a woman takes her man back after he had an affair and blames it on her working too much, please spare your time and do not listen to this. Not worth it for a second.

Great story - kept me guessing

Really enjoyed everything from the storyline to the narrator. Will look for more from this author.

Unique!

I loved this book! Creative and nice to read something that's not same ol' same ol'. A beautiful mixture of crime, and the occult, blended with a mental illness. Everytime I thought I could guess what was happening I quickly learned that I did not.

A jumble mess

Too many weak twists that tells a story in the form of a tumbleweed. Don't get me wrong, it started off like a good story but after the first third it's like what is going on...

Good story long but good

I got lost several occasions with the characters. I repeated several times in some cases to understand who was who.

An Original Story

Kept me on my toes. Loved that this story was one of the best original stories I’ve listened to all year.

sooo good

Andi Arndt is such a fantastic narrator, she can do anything! This story was a great mystery with good twists and turns, and action. I didn't want to stop listening.

Long and parts are boring

It dragged a lot, and I still don’t understand the plot line of her addiction?? It didn’t really add anything to the overall story and was never addressed at the end, so there’s no closer there. I overall enjoyed the story, but wouldn’t read again

Amazing

Well written amazing story line loved the twists and turns in it kept me guessing

Great read!

Best book I’ve read in a while. Kept me engaged the entire time! I enjoyed every second!
