A century ago, a gentle blind girl walked the cliffs of Paradise Point until taunting children drove her to a fatal fall into the sea. The tragedy—and the rage she carried with her—has not disappeared. Now Michelle has come from Boston to begin a new life in the big house at Paradise Point.
Eager to settle in and make new friends, she instead encounters a far more disturbing presence: the hand of a blind child reaching through the swirling mist. Is the apparition seeking friendship, revenge, or both? As the old tragedy resurfaces, Michelle must confront the mystery of the child who whispers her name.

Performance at a glance
What the qualified evidence says about this narrationAudio observations reflect a short verified sample and are combined with recording-specific performance evidence.
What this means for your listen
Early performance evidence points this way: the steady or measured pace should feel easy to settle into; listeners who prefer brisk delivery may find it more deliberate. Clear or careful diction should make dialogue, names, and unfamiliar terms easier to follow over a longer listen.

Evidence behind this section
Counts describe support for this narrator/recording, not a quality score.Why we describe the performance this way
We use evidence tied specifically to this recording. Repeated observations across independent sources carry more weight than isolated comments. Narrator background and career recognition can add useful context, but they do not determine how this performance is described.

Our Take
Comes the Blind Fury has the ingredients of an absorbing classic horror listen: a memorable coastal setting, a buried injustice, and a supernatural mystery connected to childhood cruelty. Public discussion generally responds well to the story’s writing and emotional pull, though the available evidence is too thin to make a confident judgment about the recording as a whole. Emily Sutton-Smith’s narration has drawn both praise and criticism, so this is a title to sample before committing.

FAQ
Is this audiobook a good fit for fans of supernatural horror?
Yes, especially for listeners who enjoy haunted settings, buried tragedies, and suspense built around a childlike supernatural presence. The story leans dark and emotionally charged rather than light or comic.
Does the story focus only on scares?
No. Its horror is tied to bullying, loss, responsibility, and the lasting consequences of cruelty. The emotional dimension is an important part of the book’s appeal.
What should I know before listening?
Expect a dark story involving a child’s death, grief, revenge, and an unsettling supernatural presence. The available discussion also suggests that the older horror style may feel more direct and less polished to some modern readers.
How is Emily Sutton-Smith’s narration received?
The recording-specific feedback is limited and divided. One listener praises Sutton-Smith’s narration, while another found the delivery made the audiobook harder to enjoy, so sampling the edition before buying is sensible.
