Thriller Award Winner for Best Short Story.

An extravagant anniversary trip turns into a desperate scramble for survival in an unsettling short story about desire, manipulation, and revenge by a New York Times bestselling author.

Psychiatrist Olivia Cole is a shell of herself after only two years with her tyrannical husband, the outwardly perfect Sebastian. On their two-year anniversary, she’s subjected to one power move too many when Sebastian whisks her away on a surprise trip—first to the charming capital of Sweden, then to an unexpected final destination. Miles from home and help, the only way for Olivia to wrest back control of her life is to give Sebastian an even bigger, shocking surprise.

Stockholm by Catherine Steadman is part of Getaway, a collection of six stories about dream escapes that take unimaginable, even sinister, turns. Each piece can be read or listened to in a single sitting.

Fantastic

It's very difficult for an author to really pull off a short story but Catherine Steadman did it. unnerving unreliable heroine. chilling and memorable. The audiobook narrator did a fantastic job. It was very good story. trigger warning ⚠️ due to themes of violence against women

Left me hanging

This was an awesome story, however at the end, I wanted to know the rest of the story.

Oh my.

I loved this story about co from and abuse. The ending was quite the twist! Short story but so with the time!

Omg

Well that was effing terrifying. For a short story that got very dark very fast!

Pretty good

A good job building the suspense, although the climax was predictable, as it is with most short stories. Nevertheless, the story was entertaining and worth the time. An unconvincing twist at the end gave it a thin layer of frosting.
