Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Steven Crossley's narration in In the Woods is nothing short of stellar. He captures the quiet desperation of the characters so well that it’s easy to feel their fear and isolation. The pacing is deliberate yet never dull, allowing each revelation to land with maximum impact. What really stands out are the quieter moments — the sound effects that mimic the eerie silence of a forest at night, perfectly complementing Crossley's delivery. However, the frequent use of background noise can sometimes be jarring, pulling you slightly out of the immersive experience. Despite this minor quibble, In the Woods is a masterclass in audiobook storytelling, making it an indispensable listen for fans of crime fiction and those who appreciate stories that delve deep into human psychology.
