Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Will Patton’s narration is a highlight, his voice perfectly suiting the noir atmosphere and delivering Burke's dialogue with just the right amount of gravelly gravitas. The story itself is a masterclass in building tension, weaving together historical whispers and modern-day mysteries. However, some listeners might find the pacing slightly uneven as it transitions between past and present narratives. Despite this minor quibble, 'In the Electric Mist With Confederate Dead' remains an engaging and chilling ride through Louisiana’s haunted past. A must-listen for fans of Burke's work.
