Killer Women Anthology #1 - Here at AudioShelf we enjoy a creepy short story every once in awhile. Since it’s still Valentine’s week, we thought what better story to share than an uncomfortable tale of love. In The Window Man we follow Sarah as she house sits for a work friend. During her stay in the house, a window is broken causing Sarah to become the tiniest bit raddled and to call upon the window man for a repair. That’s about all the information we can give since this audiobook was 25 minutes and contains a subtle, yet shocking twist in the last minute. Enjoy our review of a story that we believe to be a creepy love letter that leaves a lasting chill.

With more twists than a twizzler, Shari Lapena’s thriller will leave you at the edge of your seat. If The Couple Next Door were a how-to-guide it would be called: What not to do when you have a baby. Step 1 would be not leaving your new bundle of joy at home ALONE while you go next door to drink, and step 2...well just repeat that first step until your child is old enough to scream when being kidnapped. YES. KIDNAPPED! Everything is not as it seems in this neighborhood and you’ll want to keep your ears on alert until the very last second.
