Linwood Barclay is a certified master of the suburban thriller.
As this story breezes along the wind picks up, pulling with it clues, shocks and twists.
Soon we are at gale-force level suspense. And by the end we're in the eye of a full-blown hurricane of tension and uncertainty.
Cal Weaver, former Promise Falls, NY PD and now a PI, is hired to protect young Jeremy Pilford.
Jeremy is hated by just about the whole world for having recently been acquitted for running-over and killing a young woman. An act he admits he did.
Or did he?
There's a call for vigilante justice. On social media and elsewhere.
Cal's got his work cut out for him.
Promise Falls PD detective Barry Duckworth is investigating a case of a young man, Brian Gaffney, who has no recollection of the last two days but now has a bizarre tattoo on his back.
Brian has no clue as to what the inked message means.
No one else does either.
Oh, but they will find out. And so will you. Shockingly.
As the cases become connected, we're reminded why it's so darn enjoyable to read Linwood Barclay.
It's for the love of a finely-crafted tale, structured and presented perfectly.
So, so good.
The well-drawn characters are the threads that hold the fabric of this mystery together.
They feel real with flaws, foibles and dreams of regular folks.
Positively wonderful.
Thriller lovers, you can't go wrong with anything written by Linwood Barclay.
This book is a case in point!
This is the third installment of Promise Falls.
Linwood does an excellent job of putting all of his characters in perspective, and accountable for their crimes.
This book is a gripping thriller packed with scandal in a small town, and Linwood Barclay does exceptionally well in telling the story.
