  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  They have survived betrayal, exposure, and a war beneath the ice. After exposing a global conspiracy, former MARSOC Marine Derek Riley and anthropologist Dr. Susan Parker thought they could vanish into the mountains and start over. But evil doesn't rest, and it never forgets. When children begin vanishing from a remote area of the Navajo reservation, Derek and Susan are pulled back into a world of supernatural terror and shadow warfare. As the walls close in, a government assassin hunts them across borders, and a hacker stumbles onto a blueprint for global extinction. What follows is a breakneck mission across oceans and continents, culminating in a final stand where science meets the supernatural, and the future of the world hangs by a thread. 
  Some truths were never meant to be uncovered. Some enemies were never meant to be fought.

  "Equal parts vintage crime novel and Southern Gothic, full of aching ambivalence and hard compromises, and rounded off by bad faith and bad choices, One Foot in Eden is a veritable garden of earthly disquiet." —Los Angeles Times 
   
   
   
  Will Alexander is the sheriff in a small town in southern Appalachia, and he knows that the local thug Holland Winchester has been murdered. The only thing is the sheriff can find neither the body nor someone to attest to the killing. Simply, almost elementally told through the voices of the sheriff, a local farmer, his beautiful wife, their son, and the sheriff's deputy, One Foot in Eden signals the bellwether arrival of Ron Rash, one the most mature and distinctive voices in Southern literature.

  “Open any of his novels—from the outset, the magic operates: from the first paragraph you are caught in the jaws of a trap that will not release you until the full-stop at the end of the last page, and even then with the book closed, you remain dizzy and panting as you try to regain your footing in your little familiar world of which, during a reading, you suddenly glimpsed the vertiginous reverse.” —Simon LeysIt’s a rainy January, and Maigret has left Paris for the country on unofficial business—or, as he reflects, a stupid escapade. The examining magistrate’s brother-in-law is rumored to have killed his daughter’s lover, and Maigret is tasked with clearing the man’s name. Arriving in gloomy Saint-Aubin, Maigret meets with strangely little cooperation, both from the accused and from the ill-disposed townspeople. And why is Justin Cavre, aka “Cadaver,” a despised ex-police inspector turned private eye, throwing obstacles in his path?As Maigret makes the rounds of this marshy backwater, he sees past all the obfuscation to expose a truth even more sordid than he first intuited. Featuring a cast of small-town characters with morals as gray as Saint-Aubin’s swirling fog, Inspector Cadaver is a haunting and compulsive installment in Georges Simenon’s masterful Maigret series.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
