Mr. Feeley is a new author to me and damn he can write! Using a large cast of well fleshed out characters, Mr. Feeley churns out a tale of horror and romance that hit the small town of Maplewood. The back story of Veronica, her father and Riley is woven into the story beautifully giving the reader more info as the main story unfolds. Many of the characters are totally believable from the grandmotherly Mrs. Hatch to Rose the town gossip. Tommy and Hayden's story is well thought out and runs parallel to the main plot line so that there is a balance of each. Highly recommended read! ( )
