Wards parents are killed in an accident. He finds a hidden note (among other things) after the funeral. His life is about to change. Other seemingly unrelated events are happening...but in the end, all lead to "The Straw Men".
I could not put this book down. It is an intriquitly woven tale, that is as bazarr as it is believable. You will not forget the characters of this book, and the tale they tell will stay with you. Stephen King said it was a Masterpiece. It was.

Great Book. Found it odd at the end, but after finishing the book still thought about it and felt the ending added to the book.

Some great twists that you don't expect and I liked how the author took what seemed like two different stories and twisted them together. A good read.
