(Grade: B+) Wow, this one digs deep in short amount of time...and leaves you reeling. It's only two and a half hours long...so a real quick listen. One I hope never becomes a reality. The Audio is actually quite superbly performed too.

(Grade: B+) No spoilers but the plot twist was pretty obvious. It still carries the moral ambiguity well.
