About this listen
What happens when temperatures flare between a mother and son? A few degrees make all the difference in this New York Times bestselling author’s blazingly chilling story of psychological terror.
It’s the hottest winter on record, but Raymond’s demanding, bedridden mother doesn’t mind. She likes it warm. Lately, however, control over the thermostat has become a nasty struggle. And each morning that she’s still alive is a suffocating new challenge for Raymond. How high can the mercury climb before he boils over?
Jesse Kellerman’s Controller is part of Warmer, a collection of seven visions of a conceivable tomorrow by today’s most thought-provoking authors. Alarming, inventive, intimate, and frightening, each story can be read, or listened to, in a single breathtaking sitting.

Probably because I'm not into psychological thriller type stories. It didn't grip me and I had to trudge through it. So hard going. But I will say it was a unique perspective to read about and for that it was interesting. A snapshot of life during the worsening of the climate which I'm beginning to understand is the focus of this collection of stories.
Regarding the voice actor... I don't know whatvit was about him but he didn't do it for me at all, grated on me the whole time.
