Story
Locked behind bars for three years, Shadow did his time, quietly waiting for the day when he could return to Eagle Point, Indiana. A man no longer scared of what tomorrow might bring, all he wanted was to be with Laura, the wife he deeply loved, and start a new life. But just days before his release, Laura and Shadow's best friend are killed in an accident. With his life in pieces and nothing to keep him tethered, Shadow accepts a job from a beguiling stranger he meets on the way home, an enigmatic man who calls himself Mr. Wednesday.

An interesting book
Reviewed: 05-22-20
I had no preconceptions of this book but it's an interesting one. I'm not particularly a Neil Gaiman fan but wanted bang for my buck from my credit. It certainly delivers that. Whether or not you'll like it depends on your taste.

First audio book
Reviewed: 06-17-19
This was my first audio book, normally I prefer full cast productions, and despite Nigel Planers excellent reading i was still left unimpressed. Oh well to each their own.
