About this listen

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly comes a riveting detective story, nail-biting heist thriller and supernatural mystery performed by a full cast starring Jack Quaid and Titus Welliver.

When Brian Holloway (Jack Quaid, The Boys) was hired by famous horror author Paul Robinette (Titus Welliver, Bosch) to crack an antique safe in his home, he had no idea what he was about to encounter.

Opening that safe door unleashed something sinister — something that continues to haunt him. But what exactly? And can whatever slipped through that threshold be stopped?

Plagued by a series of disturbing supernatural encounters, chilling prophecies, and a criminal investigation into a missing girl, Brian begins to realize that he is inexplicably linked to the eternal, and that he must defy fate if he has any chance of saving the most important person in his life.

Set against the eerie tropics of Florida, The Safe Man reimagines Connelly’s 2012 short story as a pulse-pounding audio drama. This Connelly masterpiece delivers his signature flavor of suspense, and is produced with brilliant sound design for an unforgettable experience. Listen now.

Quite horrific re: Fate.

That was a tear jerker! A different angle with the Future ghost 👻 plus more.

Not Typical Connelly

I'm a fan of the author. I've read all his works and found The Wonderland Murders podcast intriguing and engaging. Unfortunately, I don't consider this an exemplary piece of his writing. The plot is simple, and the twist, if you can call it that, is predictable. However, the production values are high, and the performances are good. 
Connelly writes so enigmatically about crime and murder. This story drifts into the supernatural. It doesn't hold up as a novella. If you are a Connelly fan, don't expect this to be his best.

Was this really written by Michael Connelly?

I’m a huge Michael Connelly fan but his venture into the supernatural world has left me disappointed. Good production and performances though.

Interesting and novel plot line

Great little story that I really enjoyed. Atmosphere kept it moving along and voice acting added to plot
