Like a Charm

Like a series of eerie stories told in the dead of night, Susan Erickson reads this tale of an ill-fated bracelet (with 16 unique charms) traveling through time and space, bringing misery and death to each life it touches. In a voice unique to each chapter, Erickson presents these 16 interconnected, yet stand-alone, stories with versatility. Erickson's well-timed presentation of odd characters, titillating content, obsession, and insanity animates the diverse chapters into a taut and coordinated thriller. This unforgettable novel is written in 16 parts by prestigious mystery writers from America and England, including Lee Child, Denise Mina, and Lynda La Plante. K.A.T.
