About this listen
Austria-Hungary, 1909. From the moment Yuri Moroz sets out on an evening patrol of the Ukrainian village where he lives, he’s plunged into memories of the eerie circumstances that forced him to flee London and the priesthood to seek safety far from home.
Eugenie, his wife, is having bad dreams and worries that he’s restless and misses his old life.
That couldn’t be farther from the truth, but his protests have failed to convince her. Now, as he walks the village’s dusty lanes and byways, Yuri recalls his early years as a
Catholic priest, his triumphs in the pulpit, a strange relic left for him by his father, his
encounters with artists, dandies, ghosts, and spiritualists, and a selfish act that led to
disaster. He also encounters some of the village’s usual and not-so-usual suspects as
he struggles to figure out an explanation that will satisfy her by the time the sun rises—if the strange perils waiting for him in the dark don’t get him first.
A thrilling gothic tale, A Walker in the Evening brings together the contrasting worlds of 1880s literary London and a struggling Eastern European village in the life of one unforgettable character.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

One evening in downtown Seoul, Jeong-su is smoking a cigarette outside when he sees something impossible: a huge black orb appears out of nowhere and sucks his neighbor inside. Jeong-su manages to get away, but the terrifying sphere can move through walls, so he’s sure he won’t be able to hide for long. The orb soon begins consuming every person caught in its path, and no one knows how to stop it. Impervious to bullets and tanks, the orb splits and multiplies, chasing the hapless residents of Seoul out into the country and sparking a global crisis with widespread violence and looting.
