Wonderful listen close to Halloween! Loved the male narrator. May not appeal to those who prefer one narrator throughout a story.

A silly mystery
Not very appealing. I am not sure what the fuss is about. The teenager was written very poorly. The only thing I liked was the stark contrast between perspectives. It did a good job demonstrating everyone sees something different. Otherwise it was a little... silly.
