Absence

In Andrew Dana Hudson's debut speculative crime audiobook, the world grapples with a global crisis of Spontaneous Human Absence, where individuals are mysteriously vanishing. Two novice investigators, Harvey Ellis and his pragmatic partner Shonda Erins, are sent to small-town Kansas to interview a woman who claims to have returned from the enigmatic realm of Absence. As they unravel her story, they confront a landscape fraught with despair, political strife, and the search for hope in an unraveling society. This richly detailed narrative dives into the human experience amidst chaos and the narratives we cling to for solace.
