THE EXTRA Reviewed in The Wall Street Journal

The Extra reviewed in Wall Street Journal

THE EXTRA was featured today in The Wall Street Journal! With some kind words for both the book and for its author, Annie Neugebauer.

“A nearly perfect, claustrophobic novella with a very effective countdown clock. If you have time for only one terrifying tale this spooky season, make room for THE EXTRA.”

The Extra is now available everywhere in paperback and eBook.
