The heart of the city is being gutted by a ritualistic serial killer and the police have hit a wall. Dirk, a private detective, is thrust into the maniac's world by a mother's desperate plea. A tragic mistake leads the killer toward his next victim: a girl with ties to the investigation.

I had high hopes…

I was disappointed. Not a fan of the narrator. And there were some continuity errors that just really annoyed me.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The initial murder victim - her coming to terms with the afterlife and the hold the living world still demands.

Did Justin R Beaudry do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

As seeming newcomer to the audio scene, I am confident he will evolve.

Any additional comments?

I really appreciated the author's description of the afterlife - the potential for difficulty in letting go. There are several scenes of characters attempting to process the grief of losing their high school aged children that spoke true. Mr. Nowak went beyond the stereotypes to make each character's processing believable if not always sympathetic.
