About this listen
The cracks had opened wide one day, let the monsters out, and swallowed every bright thing.
While the cell is sparse and cold, at least this one has a bed. The figure resting there is too thin; too still, the prominent bones the result of long starvation, the stillness the product of too much anguish and abuse. He watches, though. An anxious, intelligent mind still occupies this frail and failing body, one that watches and wonders about the new guard occupying his cell each night.

Story
Two men haunted by the same ghost...Falling for "the other man" in my marriage was never part of the plan. Then again, according to Nicolae Ursache, I am the other man, and human wedding vows don't apply. Not to werewolves. Nicolae is a smug, arrogant alpha male stereotype - and I do mean alpha in the literal sense - but when the same people who killed my wife kidnap my teenage daughter, he's my only chance at getting her back. The fact that Nicolae was my wife's rightful mate means that we share a mutual interest in bringing Ellie home.

All Rath wants is a quiet, peaceful life. Unfortunately, his father brings him too much trouble - and too many debts to pay - for that to ever be possible. When the local crime lord drags Rath out of bed and tells him he has three days to pay his father's latest debt, Rath doesn't know what to do. There's no way to come up with so much money in so little time. Then a friend poses an idea just ridiculous enough to work: enter the Tournament of Losers, where every 75 years, peasants compete for the chance to marry into the noble and royal houses.

Anna does boring things for terrible people because even criminals need office help and she needs a job. Working for a monster lurking beneath the surface of the world isn’t glamorous. But is it really worse than working for an oil conglomerate or an insurance company? In this economy? A sharp, witty, modern debut, Hench explores the individual cost of justice through a fascinating mix of millennial office politics, heroism measured through data science, body horror, and a profound misunderstanding of quantum mechanics.

Stellar.
Already among my favorite authors, Martinez exceeds my admittedly high exoectations in this work. Story, characterization, and world-building here are all above and beyond the ordinary. With excellent narration bringing the best to light, I highly recommend this brief but significant tale.

I'm still reeling from the feeling evoked by this!
I'm still shaking here! This is such a POWERFUL story! Angel Martinez shows us a sliver of the life of a prisoner of war who was captured as a result of his own hubris. The life of a hero whose spirit was more broken by the deaths resulting from his overconfidence than the almost daily torture he has endured. But prisoner 374215's conditioning begins to be weakened by the presence of the guard that is assigned to him in the evenings. A guard that, surprising to the prisoner, seems capable of a level of compassion he finds surprising and suspicious yet comforting. The audiobook is brilliantly narrated by Bill Hare and well worth the asking price.
