Life is hard enough for a teenage girl in 1950s suburbia without having a mother who may—or may not—be a witch. A single mother at that. Sure, she fits in with her starched dresses, string of pearls, and floral aprons. Then there are the hushed and mystical consultations with neighborhood women in distress. The unsavory, mysterious plants in the flower beds. The divined warning to steer clear of a boyfriend whose fate is certainly doomed.

Publisher's Summary
He didn’t kill them, he didn’t rape them, he didn’t torture them; his crime was far, far worse.
Three women go missing without trace. A week is enough for the psychopath known in the press as the 'the Soul-Breaker' to destroy them. By the seventh day the women are psychologically dead, like bodies without a soul.
Shortly before Christmas, the Soul-Breaker strikes again, this time in an exclusive psychiatric clinic. The clinic has been cut off by a snowstorm, and the Soul-Breaker is in their midst. Trapped in the clinic, staff and patients band together to protect each other, but in a night of unimaginable terror, the Soul-Breaker shows them that no one is safe.
An Audible Original gripping audio dramatisation starring Adjoa Andoh, Rafe Spall, Robert Lindsay and Robert Glenister from Germany’s most successful thriller writer, Sebastian Fitzek, author of The Child, Amok and Passenger 23.

Think of it like a cheezy B-class movie...
I have every one of Sebastian Fitzek's available audiobooks, single narration as well as the multi-narrated performances. I was very excited to find out there was a new title released and immediately purchased it, but I have mixed feelings about this one.
First, the performance, as the other three that audible studios has produced, was 5 star amazing. I love the concept of adding music and sound effects when done correctly. And I've grown so fond of Robert Glenister voicing the main narrator that it almost feels like tradition.
However, in this instance, the story becomes do over the top that it's really hard to suspend your disbelief enough to get past it. At least in my case it was. There was some major eye rolling going on toward the end on my part. But it started out strong and the entire package still makes it worth the listen. You just have to go into it with a really open mind... like when you're watching a cheezy B-class horror flick.

Addicted...
I am not really surprised to see 4 stars on reviews of Fitzek’s unique writings. I just finished 8 in succession... everything translated to English, thus far. These productions are psychological jigsaw puzzles. The more publications you listen too, the more adept you come in not being a nervous wreck and just putting it down. I started wit Amok and have not stopped. There is a cadence to the thrill/shock/guesswork if you read as many as you dare. Fitzek makes it hard to go back to my favorite suspect/detective authors. f you can not appreciate the mindset and follow Fitzek’s expertly woven tales, you surely would not give perfect ratings However, I dare you to slight the stage quality narrations and dramatizations!

The Sound of Fitzek!
This is another quality production from Audible. Plenty of atmosphere, good narration and some really energetic performances. The soundscape is excellent, often generating a 3D feel with its depth and creepy incidental music. Audible seem to like Fitzek and it has to be said his stories on the whole seem to translate well into the audio-drama format. There are some really clever ideas about what the Soul-breaker actually does which makes for an intriguing, fast-paced and exciting story.
I didn't quite feel it was a five star plot though. It's the usual with Fitzek and authors like him, you need to take a dose of reality tranquiliser before you start listening to what is a fairly complex intrigue. There are one or two real stretches of credibility within this story with the setup at the clinic and some of the ways it is equipped possibly among the most obvious. There are also a couple of brief, isolated occasions that the effects make the narrative extremely quiet.
It's nothing that should stop you enjoying this good yarn though and the performances coupled with the truly engaging soundscape really drag it into the very high quality category.
