Dark August
by Katie Tallo
4.5 stars.
Dark August is a bit of a slow starter but once it picks up speed, it hurtles to a twist-filled conclusion. Lead character Augusta "Gus" Monet is young but tenacious as she pieces together what her mother, Shannon, was doing in the lead up to her death twelve years ago. The storyline is engaging, unique and well-written. The various settings are vibrantly developed and easy to visualize. All in all, an outstanding debut by Katie Tallo that I enjoyed and highly recommend.
