Chapter 33: Rusty R.I.P. – Cursebreaker Book 1: The Dusk Reapers (Urban Fantasy Audiobook)

Author: JT Lawrence May 3, 2026 Duration: 12:37

Fresh optimism and a ride across town lead Asha to the gates of the Copperfield Institute — a place her mind doesn’t recognize but her gut does. Behind the towering white walls lies a thread from her stolen past, and the déjà vu hits hard enough to make her grip the handlebars. Some memories don’t need a brain to survive.


Cursebreaker Book 1: The Dusk Reapers — a full-cast urban fantasy audiobook by USA Today bestselling author JT Lawrence.

Ever find yourself craving a story that's just the right length to fill a quiet moment, but with a twist that lingers long after it's over? That's the space where Stay Up All Night lives. Created by USA Today bestselling author and Kindle Unlimited All-Star JT Lawrence, this podcast delivers exactly what its title promises: a series of short fiction pieces designed to captivate and unsettle in equal measure. Each episode is a self-contained world, diverse in its characters and settings, yet unified by a distinctively dark-humored edge. Lawrence has a knack for weaving tales that feel both deliciously bite-sized and remarkably substantial, often leaving you with an image or an idea that refuses to fade. You might hear a story set in a mundane office that takes a surreal turn, or a domestic scene unraveled by a single, peculiar detail. The narration brings these carefully crafted words to life, emphasizing the tension and the subtle wit in every line. It’s the kind of collection perfect for a late-night drive, a walk through the city, or those moments when you just need a brief, brilliant escape from the ordinary. Tuning into this podcast means surrendering to the compelling and often unexpected-a reminder that the most powerful stories don't need hours to make their mark.
