Grist Mill Road by Christopher J. Yates


The setting of this intense, literary psychological thriller is a wild upstate New York forest filled with natural beauty and a sense of menace that builds as the story develops. The story is told from the perspectives of three kids involved in a horrific and senseless crime. I felt I knew these families and their rural community, with prejudices and class issues at play. The three are each damaged in their own way as adults when their lives converge again, with shocking results. Going home again may not always be a good idea.
