About this listen
Cody Burns is a voice actor who lucked into his dream gig. He works from home, sets his
own schedule, and parties every night like the ship is going down. So what if he’s a little late
turning work in to his agent every once in a while? He’s got the golden pipes and is in demand.
When a competing agent contacts him out of the blue with a once in a lifetime offer and the
answer to getting out from under the thumb of his current representation, Cody is more than
intrigued.
The mysterious agent takes care of his every whim keeping Cody happy, on task, and
working hard. The only caveat being he cannot miss a deadline without having certain and
specific penalties levied against him. It all seems well and good, until he discovers the job is
filled with mounting degrees of difficulty that challenge his talent, sanity, and the time
constraints he’s given.
Following threats, vandalism, and the death of an actress whose story strangely mirrors
his, he realizes working with the new agent is not what he expected, especially when missing
the next deadline could be the end of the line for him.

Story
Everyone is looking for shortcuts in life, but rarely do they find the kind they're looking for, and when they do, it never turns out like they thought. But what if you were to accidentally fall into cahoots with an other-worldly creature, who could provide those shortcuts and so much more? Of course, there's always a price attached to such favors, but killing gets easier the more you do it, and everything is great as long as the rewards outweigh the risk.

All the parents must do to collect the rest of their money is allow their children to test out the revolutionary playground equipment Geraldine has been working on for decades.

The Stress of an Impending DEADLINE
Anyone who has found themselves up against a deadline knows how it can be very stressful. Writer and narrator John Wayne Comunale takes us on a fun wild ride of an audiobook narrator who finds himself up against a deadline. Once again JWC gives an amazing performance as I have come to expect and the story has a big time Bentley Little vibe to the point I kinda question the decision of not calling this book THE Deadline, yet it is still without a doubt a John Wayne Comunale story which is a great thing!
