About this audiobook

Summary

Hidden inside a dead man's storage unit, a shoebox of childhood letters becomes a doorway to something monstrous. Megan Poole, thirty-one, rediscovers correspondence from her childhood pen pal — a boy named Eddie Beasley who knew far too much about her life. When she learns no such boy ever existed, Megan is pulled into a decades-long mystery involving missing children, surveillance, and a predator who hid in plain sight. But the deepest horror isn't what she uncovers — it's what she can't explain.

Cinderella
★★★☆☆

It got lost in places and started feeling like a documentary.
