    When a waitress is looking for a Christmas gift for her husband, she makes a deal with an older woman at a strange kind of pawn shop.
    A good creepy holiday thriller. I just have to say the guy deserved it. He was such a jerk!

Narrator Rating: 4.5 stars
   Excellent narration!

Wow. Crazy little book. Worth the 20 minutes or so it took to read it. IMO it’s not anything like Freida’s other books (of the ones I’ve read). Reminds me of an adult R.L. Stine. 

Content- very few mild curse words. Several OMG’s. No sexual content or graphic violence.
