S3E3: Pretty Scary with Special Guest Erin A. Craig

You had us at creepy fairy tales! What if some weird creature crawled out of the impenetrable woods next to your mountain town and offered to grant you a wish in exchange for a small favor? What if you said yes, and so did your neighbors, but the favors and the wishes put the people at odds and threatened to implode the whole town at the hands of its residents? Shivering yet? We are! Small Favors is out now, and we couldn't wait to talk about it with two-time New York Times bestselling author Erin Craig.
