Summary

Part 2 (Chapters 6-11): Back in Bismarck, Doug sets their plan in motion, taking cautious steps to protect Mandy and make sense of the situation. But with each move, the tension tightens—and a growing sense of unease suggests there may be more at play than they first realized. Dead Cold Drop by James Wolner is told across five gripping episodes in the signature Friday Night Fiction style. About Friday Night Fiction: Written and narrated by James Wolner, Friday Night Fiction delivers original crime stories set in North Dakota and the Upper Midwest. Inspired by The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, The Twilight Zone, and Dragnet, each episode blends atmosphere, moral complexity, and sharp storytelling—ranging from eerie one-shots to serialized suspense.
