I have been on a tear with my library picks. Winners each time. All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker is unbelievable. So good! Twists and turns galore and just when you say," Are you kidding me?", he hits you with another crazy plot point.
1975 Monta Clare, MO, girls are disappearing.
Patch, a local kid missing an eye becomes a hero when he saves the richest, prettiest girl in town. But he's taken and is tortured, left to die, and then saved by his best friend - a tough girl named Saint. She never gave up.
cover blurb - Patch and those who love him soon discover that the line between triumph and tragedy has never been finer. Their search for answers will lead them to truths that could mean losing one another.
A missing person mystery, a serial killer mystery thriller, a love story, a unique twist on each. This book covers what lurks in the shadows of obsession and the blinding light of hope.
It all starts in 1975. It ends in 2001. Holy Cow is all I can say. The writing, the characters, the story arc - un-freaking- believable.
Get this book. Read it. You are welcome.
Hi Joanne - I love your reviews ... I probably won't read it - but they always entice ... and I know I can come back in due course to find interesting reads. Cheers Hilary
