In a world in which scores of authors are trying to scare your socks off—and rarely succeeding even when they entertain—this is a rarity: a truly disturbing thriller. Genre: serial killer. Subgenre: with creepy fetish. Our man here is obsessed with spiders, and that’s one of his more human qualities. Narrator Ann Marie Lee is exceptional in creating the voices on the normal side of the ledger, of terrified victims—of no-nonsense nonagenarian Rita; of our heroine, tough FBI agent Kimberly Quincy. Lee uses accents expertly and plays a range from courage to agony as if feelings were harp strings. Lincoln Hoppe is equally effective handling the voices of the victims and the creeps, though it's a less palatable task. Strongly recommended, but listen in daylight. B.G.
