Journal Entry 1 by catsalive from Rooty Hill, New South Wales Australia on Sunday, November 13, 2011

From Booklist
Jack McMorrow has traded the personal freedom of life as a freelance writer and backwoods Maine recluse for the benefits afforded by the night editor's gig at the Bangor Clarion. His companion, Roxanne, is pregnant with his child. In this eighth entry in the series, Jack rescues Rocky, a homeless teenager, from a street beating and tries to take him under his wing. It doesn't work. Rocky doesn't want to be rescued, and his stepfather accuses Jack of molesting the boy. When Rocky's mom seemingly commits suicide after a visit by Jack, the stepdad and Rocky are even less amenable to Jack's good-samaritan routine. More bodies pop up, Jack and Roxanne are threatened, and Rocky keeps running away every time Jack tries to help him. McMorrow can be a compelling character, but this time he seems a little off-center, doggedly helping people who don't want his help and putting his pregnant companion in constant danger. Every good series has an occassional bump in the road. This one is McMorrow's.

Released 5 mos ago (12/7/2011 UTC) at Richmond Neighbourhood Centre in Richmond, New South Wales Australia

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

I really liked the story and the characters were people who I would have liked to know but it did get a bit frustrating that the boy was found to be quite the escape artist.
Felt like giving Jack a shake!
