Summary

Some call it purgatory, others know it as the in-between, but for those poor souls who are trapped there eternally it is simply: The Carnival - macabre mockery where night is never-ending, and a sadistic creature known as the Fool rules with an iron fist. 

And the Fool has one rule: No one leaves the Carnival. Ever. 

Christopher, the latest arrival thrust reluctantly through the gates, is certain that he doesn't belong there, and he's damn sure he's not going to be staying. To have any chance of escaping, he must confront not only the Fool, but his own dark past.

Average afterlife story

I was gripped by the first few paragraphs, it gave so much promise but it became stale in the middle and fell flat in the end with a predictable finish.

Quite a short listen which I liked and chapterised so easy to know when to stop listening and where to pick up.

Good English accent from the US performer among other characters, well read and easy on the ear.
