FEVER DREAM

Schweblin's haunting tale of the supernatural and psychological drama, translated from Spanish, explores a mother's desperation to save her child. The story is unsettling enough, yet Hillary Huber's reading adds additional chills for the listener. She perfectly captures the protagonist's anxiety as it slowly turns to fear and horror. David's mother tells Amanda his story about broken souls. She doesn't believe it, but before it ends, she may have no choice. At first, listeners may have difficulty understanding what is happening, but they'll quickly be drawn into the psychological suspense and hooked to see how it all will end.
