Okay.
As usual, I am behind the curve on this one, and the book has been around for a couple of years. That’s because we get our books from the paperback rack at Wal-Mart, or from Half Price Books. Still, if you have not read this book, find it and read it. It is outstanding.
A lot of reviews of the book make a big deal out of this being a “Fantastic First Novel” and it is, but that’s misleading. Hayes has had a long and successful career as a film writer, going all the way back to Mad Max 2 – The Road Warrior, and (one of my favorites) Dead Calm.
MGM bought the movie rights to this story in 2014, but don’t wait around for the film. The story is far too complex to portray on screen.
