FIND US

By: Benjamin Stevenson

Narrated by: Harriet Gordon-Anderson

Every object has a ghost.

There is a small yellow backpack - half unzipped, mouth yawning to the pavement, contents strewn around it (a banana, an exercise book, a pair of scissors) - abandoned on a suburban footpath.

Ten feet away, the rubber stamp of tyres, resisting clamped brakes, mount the curb and cut across the path. The tracks come to an end at a crippled stop sign.

The street, a tree-lined suburban road dappled in late-afternoon sunlight, is calm. But anyone walking past can feel the ghosts: the prickle on the back of their necks that tells them something happened here. The story of a vehicle careening to a halt. Of a child’s backpack left in a hurry.

That intuition all comes before they take a closer look, and see there is dark, dry red on the scissor’s blade. The ghosts are screaming now; the scene’s memory turns violent. And as the passers-by raise their phones to answer the question what is your emergency? They see more red. Between the tyre-tracks and the blood. There are two words, hastily scrawled on the sidewalk. Written in blood.

FIND US.

Interesting story

I enjoyed the story and the twist at the end. not completely a surprise but really well revealed. I didn't enjoy the "phone" conversations. The effect did not add to the voice performance. Otherwise, the voice acting was very enjoyable.

A good twist!

I was looking for a shorter listen that was included in Audible. This one fit the bill. Really good story, well developed and got you thinking about people’s motives and what do we really know about people. Fantastic twist!

Find Us

I couldn't go to sleep until I finished the story, now it is 4:15 am and time to review it. very interesting story!

Good thriller!

This audio was an great thriller, with suspense, questions and wonder.
Did have a little bit of an issue following the chapters with a few of the characters as to who was explaining their part in the story.
Other than that, should be a good audio to enjoy.

Great twists

This story was a lot of fun. The final twist was perfect. I Highly recommend it
