Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for the opportunity to read this great book!
I was unfamiliar with this author's work - this is not just a typical mystery. It's definitely a literary thriller, stuffed with wonderful writing, literary references, and more words that I had to look up in a book in a long time!
However, at the heart of this book is a great thriller. The story is told from two viewpoints - a hardened Pennsylvania State Trooper, Ryan DeMarco, and a bestselling author/professor, Thomas Huston. When Huston's entire family is slain and Huston goes on the run, DeMarco has to face the fact that the man he knows on a friendly basis may be guilty, even though he doesn't really believe it. Both of these men have demons to face so neither are thinking clearly as DeMarco's hunt for Huston and the truth go on.
A great book with that requisite twists and turns - don't miss it!
