Publisher's summary

Old secrets - everyone has a secret - from the past. Everyone has a past - new jealousies and betrayals.

Four 30-something women who were childhood friends reunited by an old promise in the decayed little swamp town of their birth. It turns into a weekend filled with obsession, deception, untold secrets, love, hatred, and murder hidden behind a dark curtain of Spanish moss.

In the distance, the moon is rising a virulent orange, sliced through with lines of red, as if leaking blood - vigilant, jealous guardian of voodoo rituals and the legends of werewolves.

Oh ;my goodness, what a mistake I made!

Holy cow, but this is bad! The narrator sounds like creepy Uncle Chester, reading from the depths of a very deep well! Maybe if the quality of the production was better it might have perhaps improved my rating, but I doubt it. And the story? No, thank you. I'm so sorry, but this one is just painful. I did try, though. Keep your credits!

Narrator needs to be gagged

The story may be ok, but I could not get past that narration. The extremely slow, drawling accent of the narrator is so over the top that it was simply painful to listen to for more than 10 minutes.
