Clark's Harbor was the perfect coastal haven, jealously guarded against outsiders. But now strangers have come to settle there. And a small boy is suddenly free of a frenzy that had gripped him since birth.... His sister is haunted by fearful visions.... And one by one, in violent, mysterious ways, the strangers are dying. Never the townspeople. Only the strangers. Has a dark bargain been struck between the people of Clark's Harbor and some supernatural force? Or is it the sea itself calling out for a human sacrifice? A howling, deadly... Cry for the Strangers.

One of my favorite John Saul books. Had a nice flow with great characters and some mystery. Enjoyed it.

The biggest problem that I have with this book is the fact that the narrator is way too slow. I had to speed it up to 1.5 just to be able to get through the narration. The story was pretty good though. It wasn't the best that I've heard from Saul but it's worth a listen if you can get over the slow narration.

good story bad narration

I think it could have been scarier in my humble opinion. But good story overall.

Normally I love John Saul’s books but this one was horrible. Probably a big part of it was the chosen narrator for this book. Kept listening thinking I would get used to it and enjoy the book anyway. No so in this case. Narration was wrong for the story and the story itself was too choppy.

Kept hoping it would get better
