As a person of a certain age, I am always pleasantly surprised when a story that revolves around teenagers captures and manages to hold my interest. Please believe me when I tell you that Dark and Shallow Lies by Ginny Myers Sain is a book that will appeal to all ages.

I was drawn to the story for the metaphysical aspects, but it turned out to be so much more. This mystery, suspense filled thriller will keep you guessing who done it right up until the end. Myers Sain does such a wonderful job in her world building, that I would swear I was in the middle of the Louisiana swamp sweating. On second thought…. it may have just been a hot flash.

This is a story about a group of children with special abilities, all born the same year in a sleepy bayou town that is full of secrets. An intricate and engaging tale that illustrates the way lives can be interconnected and ultimately affected by the choices made by others in the past. As well as, the horrible wrongs that can shatter lives when people get carried away and act on emotion and not facts.

A thoroughly entertaining read that just might make you think twice about incurring Mother Nature’s wrath.
