About this listen

From the New York Times best-selling coauthor of It Devours! and Welcome to Night Vale comes a fast-paced thriller about a truck driver searching across America for the wife she had long assumed to be dead, performed by the voice of the Alice Isn’t Dead podcast, Jasika Nicole, with an exclusive essay written and read by Joseph Fink.

""This isn’t a story. It's a road trip.""

Keisha Taylor lived a quiet life with her wife, Alice, until the day that Alice disappeared. After months of searching, presuming she was dead, Keisha held a funeral, mourned, and gradually tried to get on with her life. But that was before Keisha started to see her wife, again and again, in the background of news reports from all over America. Alice isn't dead, and she is showing up at every major tragedy and accident in the country.

Following a line of clues, Keisha takes a job as a long-haul truck driver and begins searching for Alice. In pursuit of her missing wife, she will stumble on a forgotten American history of secret deals and buried crimes, an inhuman serial killer who has picked her as his next target, and an otherworldly conflict being waged in the quiet corners of our nation’s highway system--uncovering a conspiracy that goes way beyond one missing woman.

The book is fine, and well preformed, but all of the weird creepy otherworldness of the podcast is lost, although very briefly mentioned as research.
If you're like me and you really enjoyed all of the surreal horrific encounters that were the podcast, this will leave you wanting. If you only care about the Thistle story ark, dive right in.

Not as good as the podcast

Joseph Fink writes a very relatable story. His characters are broken, as they should be. his descriptions are vivid and detailed, and the story takes many twists and turns. loved it

excellent

I love the weird and twisted world that Joseph Fink writes in. I love the podcast and I was so excited when he announced that he was re-vamping the story and releasing it as a novel. An excellent work of weird and wonderful fiction. Absolutely a must read. Jasika Nicole's performance is amazing. She did a wonderful job as Keisha in the podcast I couldn't imagine anyone else doing a better job as the narrator for this book.

I'm going to start by saying that I liked this rendition of Alice Isn't Dead, but I came into it after having listened to the podcast and I have to say, the podcast is better. Maybe it's because more happens there and we get to see Keisha's journey, but I found that the book was missing something undefinable. If you're going to pick this up, I suggest that you read the book first and then listen to the podcast.

Different from the podcast
