Despite his deep love for this adopted family, Cam wonders what is going on beyond his small slice of the world. The book opens on their tiny home, where Cam feels like the walls are closing in around him. Cam’s elderly aunts had my heart from the first moment that they stepped onto the page. Ryder Smith does such an amazing job of bringing this story to life. A mysterious bridge that appears and then people disappear? A tiny town in the middle of nowhere, with a dark secret? What’s not to love?įirst off I have to say that if you have a chance to pick this up in audio form, please do it! T. The Toll just seemed like something that would be right in my wheelhouse. I’ve been intrigued by Cherie Priest’s blend of southern gothic and horror for a while. Anyway, when I saw this audio book added to my library system, I knew that it was time to dive in. I think that all bookworms can attest that they have their fair share of backlog book buys. I picked this book up on a whim the month after it came out, and it has been sadly sitting on my shelves since then. Smith’s voice brings this to life in a way that I wouldn’t have wanted to miss. I have actually owned this in print for a while, but I’m glad I waited to listen to it on audio. Ryder Smith does an excellent job with this audio book, I must say! From the drawling, old-fashioned voices of Cam’s adopted aunts, to the frustrated and terrified voice of Titus, there is a voice that fits everyone perfectly.
