About this listen
Geneva Pomolo and her investigating partner, Iris Reeves, visit a local nightclub where up-and-coming entertainers read poetry and perform music. A young folk singer named Leora Kismet is interrupted during her performance by Mrs. Maribel Smythe’s ranting about “depravity” and “the end of days”. The rich widow’s outburst provokes consternation and confusion - all the more so when she is found dead on her front porch just a few days later.
Geneva and Iris investigate the woman’s death. What are the odd claw marks on Maribel’s face? Could they have been created by some exotic animal? Why was Leora seen leaving the house just a few minutes before Maribel is found dead? What is her connection to the murder victim? And what of the housemaid who served Maribel faithfully for 20 years? And to whom was Maribel planning to leave her entire estate?
Geneva’s and Iris’s investigation will take them to some of the more questionable corners of Wrangler’s Hill, Indiana. And when a deadly ravenous creature runs loose on the streets of Wrangler’s Hill, Geneva and Iris scramble to find the murderer before they are the next victims.

Their task is to recover the collection before it disappears into the hands of a private collector. But a wave of robberies in Wrangler’s Hill has the entire town on edge, and it’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

Story
It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.

Story
It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.
