KILL YOUR DARLING

Perfectly cast, raspy-voiced Sean Patrick Hopkins narrates this grief-filled horror story, based on true events. Seventy-seven-year-old Glenn Partridge has never gotten over the brutal unsolved murder of his young son 40 years ago. Partridge kept copious notes and lists of suspects and constantly called the police for updates. His wife, hoping to divert him, enrolled him in a writing class. There, he heard the words: "Write what you know and be liberated." When Partridge begins writing about the tragedy, including naming names, the media and his classmates take great interest in what he has to say. Hopkins's performance enhances the story's relentless terror and shocking conclusion. S.G.B. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2025]
