The Darkest Place

Whoa! This was like a roller coaster ride ... going up, up, up and then rapidly falling before coming to a compete halt. It takes a minute for your body to feel normal again.

Short premise ... young college men are being found drowned. Cops are sure these are suicides. One of the families hires a private investigator firm because they think their son was murdered.

There are lots of characters woven into and around the events taking place. There were a few times I had to stop and re-read a page or two. Convoluted plot. Interesting characters. A couple really bad guys.

The last few pages will leave you gasping. But the ending is like the end of the ride ... it just stops.... leaving you wanting something just a little more.
