Marrow

By: Aditi Brennan Kapil

Narrated by: Harriet Harris, Zehra Fazal, Michael Cullen

Harriet Sansom Harris Hacks, Desperate Housewives and Zehra Fazal How to Get Away with Murder, Lucifer give truly chilling performances in Aditi Brennan Kapil’s haunting Marrow.

Aspiring audio producer Harriet (Fazal) gets the career boost of a lifetime: the chance to interview internationally famous thriller writer Lili Novak, who has agreed to give a masterclass about her creative process. The dream gig takes a dark turn, however, as Lili immediately dives into an eerie recount of her childhood. In stories about the dangerous tenement she grew up in, Lili reveals the friendships she formed and the disturbing experiences they all endured together—some of which still haunt her.

Captivated by the tales and obsessed with the prospect of being the one to tell Lili's story to the rest of the world, Harriet ignores the red flags signaling the novelist may not be in her right mind...or that something even more sinister is happening.

Created by Aditi Brennan Kapil and unfolding over six episodes, Marrow is a harrowing psychological thriller that asks: Is anyone ever really who they say they are? As Lili’s tale unearths winding paths of trauma, lies, and deceit, to a shocking revelation, Harriet’s dream will be completely—and irrevocably—shattered.

I was initially confused..

* This book is interview/documentary style, but be patient with it. it's worth the wait. *

I kind of dove into this completely blind, and telling you I was blindsided by how this story went is an understatement. it's eerie, suspenseful, and all around a wonderful psychological thriller. it keeps you guessing who did what, who was who, and what actually happened. you get piece by piece, and the writer executed the ending by tying up all those loose ends - but not until the very end. the ending had my jaw drop & honestly amazed me with how something so short could encompass my brain and wrap me in its world, its details, and its tragedies. the emotions and tones in the readers' voices painted clear pictures of how their facial expression would be. I would recommend this to anyone who likes/loves psychological thrillers.

Keeps you on the edge of your seat!

IDK How many times I've listened to this story!..... I'm still not sick of it!

Compelling!

I loved the smart storytelling, excellent acting, a special listening experience. Engaging in all ways!

Just WOW!

Incredible storytelling, characters and narration 10/10 stars. But don’t start it unless you can finish it cause you won’t want to stop.

I have no idea what I just listened to

The story seems like it could be good, but it was so confusing and hard to follow along that I was lost, and when it ended, I was still lost.
