About this listen

State Road 177 runs along the Suwannee River, between Fargo, Georgia, and the Okefenokee Swamp. Drive that route from east to west, and you'll cross six bridges. Take it from west to east, and you might find seven. But you'd better hope not. Titus and Melanie Bell leave their hotel in Fargo for a second honeymoon canoeing the Okefenokee Swamp. But shortly before they reach their destination, they draw up to a halt at the edge of a rickety bridge with old stone pilings, with room for only one car....

When, much later, a tow-truck arrives, the driver finds Titus lying in the middle of the road, but Davina is nowhere to be found.

An excellent new take on the Southern Gothic as Priest avoids most of the clichees associated with this subgenre. The novel feels a bit disjointed, though, and the ending is perhaps a bit rushed. The reader, T. Ryder Smith, did a terrific job.

Excellent new take on Southern Gothic

I enjoyed this book. It was a little slow at times, but it was unique, had an interesting plot, and most importantly the narration was simply amazing! The accent and voice intonation really brought this story to life and made it very fun and immersive.
