CHILL FACTOR

Stephen Lang's breathy baritone adds a deep sense of disquiet as writer Ben Tierney buries a body--next to three other bodies. Is he the serial psycho, "Blue," who's been abducting women? The FBI thinks so. But Lilly Burton knows him simply as a guy she flirted with last summer. Lang keeps things intriguing enough to involve listeners as the plot struggles toward its obvious setup: A car accident and a monstrous blizzard combine to leave Lilly and Ben stranded alone at Lilly's cabin. As the pace picks up, Lang keeps anxiety on the front burner. Apprehension mounts, suspense builds, and the climax holds listeners to the headphones.
