Stephen King and son Joe Hill collaborate to create a creepily grotesque short story that will leave listeners recoiling in horror. Starting with the lead-in music, it's a thriller through and through, and narrator Stephen Lang perfectly sets the stage with deliberate intensity and ghoulish inflection. A brother and sister pull over on a deserted stretch of highway upon hearing a child call for help from the tall grass. What ensues is part classic horror (getting lost in a changing landscape of tall grass) and part classic King (shock, terror, and gore). Lang's dramatic undertones create an atmosphere of suspense that permeates throughout. E.A.B. © AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2013]
