Make no mistake, this is a gripping page-turner. This is the third book I've read from this author and he keeps getting better and better. One thing I admire about his style is that his characters act so believably when confronted with the bizarre and supernatural. There are no heroes here.
I would've given this book five stars but for the inclusion into the story of some (for mine) very extraneous "oh please" elements concerning "young children". They lend the book an unneeded deus ex machina with spoils affairs a tad.
Yet, we have another winner here.
