Mike Dellosso did it again! He wrote another page-turning, well-written suspense novel with fleshed out characters, and he actually surprised me at the end because I was so into the story! The story takes you on a journey with Mark Stone who hears deathly, otherwordly screams over the phone followed by the other person’s untimely…
