Cold People

Rebecca Lowman nails the atmospheric coldness of Tom Rob Smith's Cold People from the first word. Her voice has an unwavering intensity that perfectly captures the protagonist’s determination and fear. The narrative zips along at a breakneck pace, making even the most mundane moments feel charged with anticipation. However, some dialogue feels slightly stilted, dragging the plot in a few instances. Despite this, Smith’s intricate plotting keeps you guessing until the very end. The chilling, near-future setting adds layers of tension that make for an unforgettable listening experience.
