A set of short stories by Stephen King, read by some great actors. I believe this is a smaller compilation of one of his larger short story anthologies.
I think my favorite was the title story, Sorry, Right Number about a family who receives a terrifying phone call, changing the course of their lives. The catch at the end was amazing and nothing like I expected.
A few of the stories weren’t the trillers I was expecting, but still good non-the-less and great listing material on my way to and from work. Very entertaining.

A collection of four short stories that were done as multi-voiced dramatizations for the audiobook. The dramas are followed by notes on how the stories came to the author's mind. The stories were just okay for me. I'm not sure if they were just hard to follow because they were dramatized or if they were just not his best work.

Sorry, Right Number - performed by a cast - a nice story, something I would expect to see on Twilight Zone, which is high praise from me. A little time travel, and some scares (mostly just in your mind)
Popsy - read by Joe Mantegna - seems appropriate for one of the current Criminal Minds to read this story about a kidnapper. There is a disturbing sideline that you don't know what happens after the Boat Ride...but, the kidnapper at least gets his due
The Ten O'Clock People - read by Joe Morton - An interesting idea - that having just the right amount of nicotine in your system allows you to be the lucky ones to see the take over crew...
The Beggar and the Diamond - read by Domenic Custern - I wasn't overly fond of this fable. I don't even think I want to find the original. Reminded me of the Book of Job in the Bible, which is a mean story all the way around.
I didn't listen to the NOTES, as I am still finishing some of the stories and don't want to ruin it for myself. I will read them in the hardcover when I finish with the CD collections.
