About this listen
In the secluded village of Reeth, the Hawthorn family has found their new home, a place shrouded in mystery and dark secrets. The recent murder that took place there has left the house within their budget, but is there a higher price they still have to pay?
On the first night in their new home, Gerald Hawthorn unwittingly releases a Haglard, a sinister creature from local folklore with malevolent intentions. This insidious creature has the power to mimic voices and sounds, tormenting its victims to breaking point before going in for the kill.
With trickery and paranoia turning the Hawthorns against each other, they must uncover the truth before it's too late.
Mockingbird is a modern fairy tale horror from the macabre mind of Steve McElhenny.
Hush little baby don't say a word!

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

For some it’s an opportunity. For others it’s a moment to question their faith: In God, in science, in everything. Still others try to keep the world running in the face of absurdity and uncertainty. And then there are the billions looking to the sky and wondering how a thing that was always just there is now... something absolutely impossible.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

When his younger sister's body is found washed up on the shore, Owen Saddler follows in her footsteps to the cabin she'd rented on Chapel Lake, diving among the ruins below the surface.

Nice creepy read
Narrator performance was very good. The story was creepy, the ending a bit of a letdown, but still a nice solid read throughout.

Unique and talented
McElhenney has a unique style; his humor shines through even when he's writing horror. Always entertaining, and always with an optimistic view of humanity - even as he parodies our foibles.
Alan Aldersley-Byrne is a talented reader. He conveys the mood of the piece well, keeps all the character voices distinguishable, and has taught me a few things about UK accents. I would love to workshop with this guy.

Human vs. Hobgoblin
The story may start off slow but when it picks up it really picks up. I won't give away any spoilers but I will say this you won't be disappointed. The narrator could have been a little better but he did not distract from the story. The book is unique and entertaining and will keep you guessing and trust me you won't see it coming. This is my honest and unbiased review here that I leave of my own volition.

A Perfect Horror Dessert! I LOVED it!
Apple Blossom Cottage, a deal too good to pass up! When Gerald’s university chum offered it deeply discounted, he bought it … sight unseen … save for the brochure pictures. So what if the charming cottage had been the site of a horrific act … Oh Gerald, and you thought this property was the solution to your problems … “Mockingbird” … horror with sass, humor, biting wit and twist that had me grinning from ear to ear! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, you can’t go wrong with Steve Mcelhenny! This brilliantly narrated story immediately grabbed me, held me throughout … and then gob smacked me with an unexpected and brilliant twist that left me completely stunned and sooo satisfied! Of course, my lips are sealed, telling would be spoiling and I’m not going there! The characters are unique, well varied, beautifully detailed and ring authenticity human! I love how their “true selves” are revealed over the course of the story! I also loved the pacing of the story with the timing so clearly delineated! I absolutely LOVED how the story drew me in, deeper and deeper as it built to a crescendo. I lost sleep ~ I had to KNOW … and then wham! I can’t give details without giving it all away! Just know this isn’t your typical “haunted house” horror story ~ it’s so much more! Also, the narration is stellar! The scenes, characters, and action are brought to life via dynamic vocal intonation that not only brings out the emotion and the snark I love so much, but sets the mood perfectly! I stayed “in the moment”, as one with these unique characters ~ this fabulous story throughout! That ending though was the icing on my perfect horror dessert! I LOVED it! In truth, I loved everything about “Mockingbird”! I five fabulous star LOVED it!
