teddybear

by Corvyn Appleby

Five years after their mother's unsolved murder, two teenage sisters find themselves caught up in dangerous mysteries of their own. A dead animal, a missing classmate, a new student with a dark past, letters written in the middle of the night. When all these seemingly unrelated threads begin to overlap, the quiet of suburbia gives way to the underlying violence and terror hidden in the shadows.

    A gutwrenching small-town noir that shoves a hand in your chest to grip your heart and never lets go. Appleby's most impressive trick is how they toss you into the middle of this sprawling, knotted mystery, then efficiently unties the whole thing in under 60 pages. The mystery is clear and concise, and you never feel the gears turning until the floor falls out from under you. I mixed my metaphors there, but the point stands -- a fascinating, edge-of-your-seat examination of the terrible creatures lurking under the pleasant suburban surface.
