Review: The Voice on the Radio

The Voice on the Radio could have come off like a rehash of The Face on the Milk Carton, but it didn’t, I was riveted once again.  Janie’s story was told in a new refreshing voice as fascinating as it was the first time.  Although, I had a hard time getting past what a prick […]
