Critic reviews
"This taut collection of psychological thrillers offers a wide variety of vacation settings. The short, sharp stories transport listeners to a consciousness-raising cruise on which honesty isn't necessarily the best policy, a family beach house haunted by generations of secrets, and a tropical paradise where a serial killer stalks the unwary. Each narrator in the ensemble is well matched to their story and contributes to a cohesive whole despite the array of authors, styles, and settings. Particular standouts include Shayna Small, who embodies a self-confident young woman cast into doubt and fear at her boyfriend's remote cabin, and Samara Naeymi as a woman who is pushed to the brink by a controlling husband and a remote Scandinavian sojourn.”—AudioFile Magazine
