About this listen

The village of Saint-Ferdinand has all the trappings of a quiet life: farmhouses stretching from one main street, a small police precinct, a few diners and cafés, and a grocery store. Though if an out-of-towner stopped in, they would notice one unusual thing - a cemetery far too large and much too full for such a small town, lined with the victims of the Saint-Ferdinand Killer, who has eluded police for nearly two decades. It's not until after Inspector Stephen Crowley finally catches the killer that the town discovers even darker forces are at play. When a dark spirit reveals itself to Venus McKenzie, one of Saint-Ferdinand's teenage residents, she learns that this creature's power has a long history with her town - and that the serial murders merely scratch the surface of a past burdened by evil secrets.

Critic Reviews

"Move over True Detective. A rich, gothic story of murder and mystery, A God in the Shed is quite possibly one of the most enthralling novels I've read in the last 10 years. Dubeau is a force to be reckoned with." (Jerry Smith, Fangoria Magazine and Blumhouse.com)

A thrilling and horrifying puzzle

Dubeau’s ‘God in the Shed’ was horrifying for both its liberal amount of gore, and interrogation of the darker aspects of the human psyche. While the plot and large cast of characters made the novel a puzzle in of itself- with each character and clue creating a intriguing tableau- the narration at times also positioned listeners to respond in certain ways. This was a natural conclusion since Marantz’s gravelly tone, while great for hyper masculine characters like the anti-hero Crowley, made female characters, especially the young Venus Mackenzie, sound condescending. None the less, a magnificent and riveting tale!
