Description

When a soccer field complex springs to life seemingly overnight in the sleepy community of Skary, Indiana, and the local coffee shop begins offering computer access along with its suddenly overpriced beverages; nerves start getting edgy all over town. Is it possible new comer, soccer mom, Katelyn Downey is hatching a diabolic plot to turn their slow-paced town into a den of hip suburban iniquity, or might this be the perfect solution to the community's financial woes? Even as concerned residents take sides over their town's future, many are dealing with changes of a more personal nature. Novelist Wolfe Boone can't seem to find the right niche for his post horror writing efforts, and his new bride Ainsley, known for executing complicated events with panache and perfection, is bewildered by her inability to control something as seemingly simple as scheduling a pregnancy. But, frustration turns to envy when Ainsley's wacky friend Melb discovers, to her utter horror, that she and her husband are expecting a baby.

Reviews

AudioFile Magazine...
In the quirky world of Skary, Indiana, there is a two-headed snake on the loose, a soccer field that appears out of nowhere, and residents who look to an inept mayor to solve their problems. Michael Taylor has a solid narrative style; however, the sound quality of this production is somewhat tinny, and the acoustics are sharp to the ear. The story is difficult to keep track of, and the listener has to attend carefully as there are no pauses in chapter transitions. Taylor characterizes the excitable townsfolk well, but this story of urban sprawl and small-town antics may be easier to read in book form than to listen to. D.L.M.
