FEAR

Narrator John Glouchevitch affects the unsettling tone and careful pacing of this audiobook about a middle-class family that has a troubled, and troubling, resident living in their basement. Glouchevitch renders Randolph Tiefenthaler with a building sense of frustration and impotence as he is charged with the sexual abuse of his children. The accuser is Dieter Tiberius, the bland and seemingly kind basement dweller who appears to be stalking the people living upstairs. Glouchevitch professionally delivers the chilling events that lead to the murder of Tiberius as the author explores the nature of contemporary life and its social constructs.
