3.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting,
By A Customer
This review is from: Angel's Gate (Hardcover)
Whether you enjoy this novel really all depends on your taste of books. If you're the one for sci-fi or adventure, this book is a little slow moving. However, if you like crime mysteries, this one is for you. Set in the small country town of Jericho, the Marriot family's life in fairly uneventful. That is, until a gold-miner who was recently seen around the area dies by mysterious means. The concern of the town is that, there are claims that he had two children around with him at the time. Their whereabouts is unknown. The story's ability to mix trivial events along with the highlights is extremely clever.

Lost, Found, and Murdered,
By A Customer
This review is from: Angel's Gate (Hardcover)
Lost Found and MurderedWho killed Flannagan and where are his two kids? Flannagan, a guy that not many people know is murdered one night but when the scene of the crime (his campsite) is searched there are no signs of his kids. After many complaints from farmers, of eggs and milk being stolen, the girl is found and captured but her brother gets away. After a long time of searching her brother is found, but they would not tell who the murder was. However, after an argument between three adults he cannot hold it in any longer and tells them who killed his father, who could it be? I enjoyed reading this book, I dont think there was one minute that I was bored, it kept you guessing and wondering what could be next. Then the murder is thrown in and all thoughts of who the murder is are crushed. You will not be able to put the book. It is truly the most interesting book I have read all year.
