Man, what a good read! Yes, it can come off as a little slow because it is taking you through the events over the months, but this was so thrilling in an eerie sort of way. And, given the stories I've heard from my parents about growing up and living through the 70s, I can definitely believe something like this would have happened in a rural location. If you're looking for something different, I would recommend this for sure.
