  With pandemic-fearing city dwellers fleeing to the New Jersey suburbs, Risko Realty—and Odessa Jones—are having their best year ever. Finally on solid financial footing, Odessa is debt-free and looking forward to the future. But she doesn't need second sight to sense her new young co-worker, Anna Lee, is on edge—and straight-up terrified—in spite of her hot sales record and sunny, outgoing attitude. And when Anna is killed in a hit-and-run, Odessa sees immediately that it was no accident . . .  
   
   
    
  It's soon clear that Anna was being stalked. But even with the help of family, friends—and Odessa's feisty cat, Juniper—Odessa is coming up with more questions than clues. Why was Anna avoiding influential real-estate mogul Emily Delbarton? Why is Delbarton's decidedly creepy brother so fixated on Anna? Did Anna make enemies through her previous job at the town's exclusive gentlemen's club? And can Odessa rule out her own ex-fiancé—who's back in her life with an astounding connection to Anna—and wanting a second chance? Finding the answers will come at an increasingly deadly cost—one Odessa's talents must somehow trap a killer to repay . . .

  Step into the shadows of the human mind — where nothing is as it seems, and no one is entirely innocent.
   
  Voices in the Dark is a masterfully crafted anthology of 12 standalone psychological thrillers that will grab you by the throat and whisper secrets you were never meant to hear. From the moment the first story begins, you’re plunged into a world of subtle paranoia, dangerous memories, and eerie encounters that blur the line between reality and delusion.
   
  Each short story is a self-contained experience — tight, twisty, and impossible to pause — written by acclaimed thriller author Sam Johnson and brought to life by the immersive voices of Lucy Walker and James Goodwin. Whether it’s the woman trapped in an elevator with someone who remembers what she forgot… the man whose new phone begins syncing surveillance photos of himself… or the late-night confession that reveals the priest’s own darkest sin, every tale is a psychological maze with no guaranteed way out.
   
  This isn’t horror for the faint-hearted or simple scares with jump cuts — these are thrillers that linger, crawling under your skin and forcing you to question what you’d do in the darkest of moments.
   
  Whether you’re commuting, walking alone at dusk, or laying awake at 2 a.m., Voices in the Dark is your next unforgettable listen.
   
  Lock the door.  Press play.  And whatever you do…  don’t listen alone.

  Tales of Men and Ghosts

  Edith Wharton

  Tales of Men and Ghosts was published as a collection in 1910, though the first eight of the stories had earlier appeared in Scribner's and the last two in the Century Magazine. Despite the title, the men outnumber the ghosts, since only "The Eyes" and "Afterward" actually call on the supernatural. In only two of the stories are women the central characters, though elsewhere they play important roles. Wharton enjoys subjecting her subjects -- all of them American gentlemen and gentlewomen, in the conventional senses of the word -- to various moral tests and sometimes ironic tests. Some of the stories deal with the intellectual fashions of the day -- "The Blond Beast" basing itself, to some degree, on Nietzsche, and "The Debt" on variants of Darwinism. Though "Afterward" is set in England, and "The Letters" in France, the rest of the stories are squarely in Wharton's own New York city, rather than (say) in what she calls "the soul-deadening ugliness of the Middle West," thus avoiding the need to come to terms with what fashion-conscious New Yorkers still today call "fly-over country" for everything that lies between the west bank of the Hudson River and San Francisco Bay.
