FLORIDA WOMAN

Explore a titillating performance by Eileen Stevens paired with a bizarre yet engrossing story. Jamie, a native of Florida, is the kind of criminal whom typical headlines are written about. Her most recent sentence is to be served at Atlas, a sanctuary for wild monkeys. But after she settles into this unusual situation, she notices the distress of the wildlife and the unsettling vibes of the people who work there. Then there are the ritualistic sacrifices on behalf of the Atlas facility itself. Jamie's reactions are portrayed as pensive as she tries to figure out what's going on. Overall, Stevens narrates straightforwardly, an approach that works well for a plot that continually turns up the unexpected. G.M. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2022]
