About this listen

Bethany's Sin is a tiny, picturesque village in rural Pennsylvania. Its tree-lined streets, beautiful houses, and manicured exteriors offer - or appear to offer - both peace and a place of refuge. Evan Reid, a man haunted by his memories of the Vietnam War and by a history of viscerally disturbing dreams, comes to the village with his wife and daughter, hoping to make a fresh start after a series of discouraging setbacks. At first, all goes as planned.

Evan resumes his career as a freelance writer while his wife, Kay, begins teaching math at a local college. But there are things going on in Bethany's Sin that no one wants to talk about: unexplained disappearances, houses that stand strangely vacant, half glimpsed figures that appear to be female, the impossible sound of hoof beats in the night. At the center of it all stands a single imposing woman: Dr. Kathryn Drago, a scholar and community leader who holds the key to the mysteries that enshroud the town.

Interesting idea, but not entirely convincing

McCammon does a great job of evoking a small town with dark secrets, and the whole thing holds together pretty well until the secrets start to come out. Then we realize that the whole thing is a little silly. All in all, though, not a bad book. Ray Porter's narration is spot on, as always.

Girl Power

Evan is a tortured, Vietnam vet trying to make a new life for his family in seemingly perfect, Bethany's Sin.

Men in the area seem to get injured easily, and the women wear the trousers in the relationships. Is Evan just being paranoid or is something weird going on?
