The Nowhere Child
by Christian White
Score: 4/5
Kim Leamy is an ordinary girl who lives in Melbourne, Australia. She is a part-time photographer and teacher at TAFE. One day, before Kim taught the next class, an American man approached her and talked about the abduction of Sammy Went. The abduction happened 28 years ago at Manson, Kentucky in the States. Kim didn’t understand why that American Man told her those things until the man said Kim might be Sammy Went. Kim wanted to know the truth, so she flew to the US. Kim realized the deeper she digs into her past; the darker side of Manson appears. Is Kim, Sammy Went? And who kidnapped Sammy Went?
If you look closely at the book cover, you will see the award badges. 4 badges guys! White is an Australian author. That’s why the protagonist is an Aussie as you can probably tell. The Nowhere Child is White debut novel and it was a success. I’m happy for him.
The storyline was switching between now and then. White did a good job on that. However, I didn’t find this book exciting or thrilling even around the end of the book. However, I found the story was very smooth and very joyful. Every clue in the book was solved. I was happy with that because I HATE anything being inconclusive. What I really like about this book was when Kim arrived at Manson then she checked in at the hotel. She turned on the telly and the Antique Roadshow show was on. The reason I like this is because my mother-in-law loves this show. She tried to show me some bit of the show once, but it wasn’t my thing. Anyway, I thought it wasn’t a popular show but White decided to use it in his book. It was very unexpected.
What I am about to tell you right now will be a very superstitious story, but I just want to put it here. So, I asked God what I should read, then I closed my eyes and randomly picked up the book. My hands grabbed The Nowhere Child. Believe it or not, there was quite some time the Bible was brought up in this book. It was very freaky and awesome at the same time!
The Nowhere Child might be an out of sight book among Thai readers, but I really want everyone to read it. This Australian author will make you amazed and you will love his book as much as I do, or maybe more.
