Aiken does well in with serious novel.,

This review is from: Voices in an Empty House (Hardcover)
"Voices in an Empty House" was a new direction from Joan Aiken. In it, Thomas Cook, a publisher with arthitis and frequent amnesia due to the pain meds tries to find his stepson, Gabriel Baird, the son of August "Gus" Baird, now-deceased genius and Nobel winner. Gabriel is hiding somewhere in New York City, and Thomas tries to find him so that Gabriel can have a life-saving heart operation. Also on the trail is Gabriel's mother, the extremely self-centered Bella and her brother Bo, who is dark, moody and may know more than he lets on. The book moves through flashbacks to the past, where Thomas has a dark secret, and the present as the climax goes to Staten Island and an old decrepit mill, where danger is closer than any realizes.
