The River King by Alice Hoffman
Book Number:RC 50717
325 Pages on 8 sides
Read by John Polk
Massachusetts’s Haddan School was built in 1858 for wealthy students from across the country. Even a century later, locals do not attend. But following the inexplicable death of a student, the entire town becomes involved, as policeman Abel Grey finds himself searching for solutions to both old and new mysteries. 2000.
I thought this book started out a bit slow, but it did pick up after a while. A strange story with some complex characters. Here is the link to her home page;http://www.alicehoffman.com/
I am giving it a 4 out of 5.
Happy reading,
Carla/TexasRed
