The Grey Matter

De: Billie Sue Mosiman

Narrado por: Joe Hempel

The mountains of DeKalb County, Alabama, were majestic, tranquil, inspiring, and isolated. Just the type of place a man like John Grey would choose to call home. A land where he was king of all he surveyed. A land where he could be God himself, if he chose to be. Until those kids moved into the cabin below the ridge.

It had been perfect at first for the four young people. Friends since their broken childhoods, now they stood together at the threshold of adulthood. They were a family by choice, not by nature. When supplies dwindled and society failed, so did the rules of civilization and the mountain closed in. Not all predators walk on four legs.

The Grey Matter is a novel of white-hot suspense where life is unpredictable and survival is paramount. Who is a friend and who's the enemy?

Has Potential

The premise for this listen was a good one. The end of civilization forces a group of abused teenage friends to kill or be killed. A serial killer is suddenly without a steady supply of victims. Who will survive?

The story kept me listening until the end to see if the teenagers would be able to outpsycho the psycho...and all of the rest of a small town that goes crazy when the EMP hits. I was rooting for the kids and it kept me listening until the end.

It would have been more believable if the dialogue had been a little better.

Joe Hempel was a decent narrator and brought the story to life.

I recieved this audiobook for free from Audiobook Boom! in exchange for an honest review.
