Final Assignment | Linwood Barclay

1 post | 1 read | 3 to read

Stephen King has called him “a suspense master.” Now the New York Times and #1 international bestselling author of Broken Promise delivers a taut thriller about a crime that will give the town of Promise Falls a punch to the gut... Private investigator Cal Weaver doesn’t know what to expect when he’s called to the home of Chandler Carson. The sixteen-year-old has been suspended for writing a violent story about a bat-wielding teen who beats his best friend to death over a girl. Much to Chandler’s mother’s surprise, there’s nothing that Cal is willing to do—or can do—about it. Soon after, Chandler’s best friend is found murdered—beaten to death by a bat. Cal knew the victim, and now he knows the prime suspect. But there’s more to this story than anyone could have imagined... “Barclay has established himself alongside the masters of suburban fiction.”—The Associated Press “Twist-driven thrillers packed with explosive action are a hallmark of Barclay’s career.”—USA Today Includes a preview of Linwood Barclay’s new hardcover, Far from True

Final Assignment | Linwood Barclay

This is a short novella as part of Barclay‘s ā€Promise Fallsā€¯ series and I thought it was really good. I don‘t always enjoy short stories, and although (like many other short stories), I would have liked this to be longer (in this case, to draw out the suspense a bit), the mystery was still done really well, though it was much sped up. Barclay continues to be one of my favourite thriller writers.
