Brimming with dark humor, violence, and mystery, The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre is a blood-soaked slasher sure to keep listeners guessing until the very end. This program is read by January LaVoy, seven-time Audie Award–winner, Grammy nominee and AudioFile Golden Voice.

"[Narrator January] LaVoy creates believable characters and brings their eccentric personalities to the fore. Most impressive is her subtle characterization of the killer. LaVoy preserves the tension by never giving away the culprit's identity until the big reveal." — Kirkus

"[Author Philip] Fracassi gives the characters emotional depth as he shows the horrors of aging and being forgotten, with the depth buoyed by January LaVoy's nuanced performances." — Library Journal


Rose DuBois is not your average final girl.

Rose is in her late 70s, living out her golden years at the Autumn Springs Retirement Home.

When one of her friends dies alone in her apartment, Rose isn’t too concerned. Accidents happen, especially at this age!

Then another resident drops dead. And another. With bodies stacking up, Rose can’t help but wonder: are these accidents? Old age? Or something far more sinister?

Together with her best friend Miller, Rose begins to investigate. The further she digs, the more convinced she becomes: there’s a killer on the loose at Autumn Springs, and if she isn’t careful, Rose may be their next victim.

The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre by Philip Fracassi.
This is a definite recommend.
Beautifully written, intense emotional impact, brutal unique killings, and expert storytelling. Just about every murder could be a stand-alone short story but it's very cohesive and just flows. I think it's because the characters embrace life so much that the deaths hit so hard. I have so much hate for the killer because I loved the characters so much. I was blown away. 5 stars.

This book could have been filled with caricatures and cliches but it's not. Instead it has fully fleshed characters that want life, love , friendship and dignity at any age. It shows respect for older adults. Beautiful, heart pounding, heart breaking and brilliant slasher/mystery thriller.
"Perhaps it will remind them that age doesn't define you, that life is still a vibrant beast, full of light and music and laughter and friends and love and sex and sure, yes, okay...danger."
"Because that's the shit that makes life worth living. " - The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre

The narrator was phenomenal. I really enjoyed her different voices. I really did like the book I just think the ending lacked a bit. Other than that really good.
