About this listen

A bloodthirsty lake monster menaces a small town in the Ozarks....

When the men find him, the boy’s legs look like they were run through a wood-chipper. He’s bleeding heavily and near death, but he still has strength to tell them of the monster that attacked him: a dark, massive creature that emerged from the bottom of the lake. The child dies before he can say more.

c When another body is found chewed to pieces, the Sheriff begins to wonder what evil lies at the bottom of Big Water Lake.

I enjoyed listening to the story enough to finish it, but I wouldn't listen again and I am glad it was a freebie. I found it quite sexist and very stereotypical of the roles of men and women.
The women added nothing much to the story so I don't see why the point of them even was - mind you, all were physically described in detail, something the men weren't given the same attention.
I was surprised to see it was written in 2013 as it seemed very dated which is a shame because it could have been far better had it been a little more progressive.

Another pleasant surprise from Audible free Plus catalogue. Part of the story was terribly predictable, but the main part wasn't, so that was great because I kept listening to find out what was happening. I liked how we got to see more mundaine, everyday perspective of (supernatural?) horror events. Ambiguous ending was also a great choice. Nice quick listen.

Not bad

Surprisingly good, well written with interesting characters. Not your usual creature feature, but possibly all the better for it
