The Big Thrill Recommends: WHAT LIES IN DARKNESS by Christina McDonald
Recommended by Susana Kuehne
They say darkness represents the great unknown—the dichotomy of thrill and fear forming a sensation people cannot handle but want to experience. In WHAT LIES IN DARKNESS by Christina McDonald, readers will understand exactly what this means as they viciously flip through pages of her masterfully written mystery.
A snowy night. A closed road. A crash. What happened, and more importantly—where are the victims?
Alice’s family drives home from a Christmas Eve party when their van topples, leaving her seriously injured and the rest of the passengers missing. The whole town desperately searches for answers as Alice refuses to acknowledge the possibility that her mother, father, and little sister may very well be dead. Now, under the custody of her aunt Mel, this troubled teen shoulders the burden of guilt and confusion, along with anger. With so many questions still lurking and demanding attention, Alice can’t move forward. Thankfully, Detective Jess Lambert has been assigned the case. It becomes her mission to follow the strange clues left in the wake of this horrible accident.
Vivid sounds and sightings enrapture Alice. It appears her family is trying to tell her where they are. Can she make it to them in time?
As the story unfurls, McDonald grips her audience and pulls them into this otherworldly existence. The only thing that holds any significance is solving the puzzle of where Alice’s family has gone, if only a greedy uncle, vain aunt, lying best friend, and nosey neighbor weren’t complicating the search.
In this book, McDonald highlights how the connection to family can be so intangible and still so real, but also how the link to strangers can be just as deep.
