Now, after scratching the surface of Cole's troubled past, Crais returns with a stunning suspense novel that leads Elvis to the dark secrets of his own life.

Oh my G-d -- the last bit of this read definitely pulled me in - children in this situation are always a hook for me - was thinking I would go back and read his first book with this Travis character - but guess I'll start with this one -

What I read so far has me interested. I think I will make him part of my reading material. This is the first time I have read anything by him. I think I am in for a treat.
