About this listen
When his boss was murdered, Cary Bouchard’s life began.
For years, timid Cary toiled away in a cold cubicle. He had dreams, but not the courage to pursue them. That is, until he lost his job and found his fortune in a most unexpected way.
Nothing could have prepared Cary for how his life changes: Love, money, and fame come to him all too easily. Soon he’s on TV, signing autographs for legions of fans, in love with a beautiful woman, and buying a Manhattan penthouse. Cary’s newfound confidence and cachet elevates him higher and higher.
But what goes up must come down. Someone is out for blood. When unspeakable horrors and death start to befall everyone around Cary, everything slips from his grasp. His girlfriend, his fame, and finally...his sanity. All gone.
A broken man, Cary has nothing to lose as he faces complete oblivion head-on. He does everything he must do in order to uncover the truth about the murder that led to his great fortune.
But even if he does, will anyone believe him? And can he even trust himself?

Critic reviews
"Staci Layne Wilson is an expert at creating believable characters, a chilling scenario, and a roller-coaster-ride-of-a-story that doesn't put on the brakes until the very last page." (James Newman, author of Holy Rollers and The Wicked)
"Staci Layne Wilson has one hell of a book here. It’s a spine tingling story from the very start; exciting, erotic, chilling, horrifying, gruesome...but more than anything, it’s AWESOME. This one I guarantee you will not be able to stop listening to.” (Ruby, Fallen Angels Review)

I was taken completely since I started listening to it and I was straight away fascinated by the main character, although I could never really like him, even if he didn't really deserve my hate.. It' just not a likeable character! I actually pitied him at first as he found himself writing at night, after a day at work, doing a job he really hated but couldn't afford to lose! But one fateful night his dreams started to come true and Cary's life suddenly took a positive turn. At the same time though, unbeknownst to him, he started to change as well..
I liked the focus of the story solely on one person, the main character, and the detailed description of his evolution (or can it be called such?) throughout the book. I found the descriptive writing style very appropriate to fully understand the changes and the character arc. This is not the usual serial killer story, but a very subtle one, that fully come together at the end, after collecting all the little crumbs left along the way.
This is a story to be savoured slowly, but that leaves you satisfied at the end!
Thank you Staci Layne Wilson for the opportunity to listen to it and this is my honest review.
I was taken from the beginning! Very original!
