I'm not big on graphic sex and horror, but reviewers say this book has lots of great descriptive passages about the Wisconsin Dells, so I'll browse it looking for the good stuff...

The plot just had a few mild touches of horror; it was actually more of a political thriller/police procedural.

I liked the staccato way Thayer writes, with lots of sentence fragments. It makes for a fast read!

Like other reviewers have said, his lush descriptions of the Dells (and Nantucket Island) were very, very good.

Mailed to a Colorado Bookcrosser today.

Thank you very much for sending me this book! Its in excellent condition too, how fun! I'll be picking it up soon, I hope. :)

I really enjoyed this book! It definitely wasn't a horror novel but it was a great mystery. Thayer really made me feel as if I were in Wisconsin in 1960, and for that it was very good. I didn't think the novel and crime descriptions were too graphic but as vague as I thought Thayer was, I was still able to get a clear enough picture of the characters and events in my mind. Overall, although I enjoyed the book, I didn't think the plot was very original. I'll be keeping an eye out for more of Thayer's work but I won't necessarily be tracking more of his books down. :)
