About this audiobook
A mother becomes suspicious of her daughter’s pre-school teacher.
Is Teacher Dalton who she appears to be, or is something more sinister afoot?
'Astrid' is part of the 'Sticky Fingers 2' short story collection: diverse, dark-humored, and deliciously bite-sized.
Fans of Roald Dahl and Gillian Flynn will love these unsettling stories with a twist in the tale.
