The Dark Room by Jonathan Moore

5.0

This had everything I love in a mystery. Best of all, it's all show and no tell. A setting - San Francisco - that I know, with lots of great description that emphasizes the map in my head. Deeply interesting characters that are real and not superficial or just words on a page. A small part of the story is about the protagonist and what's going on in his life, which is slowly unfurled and also tinged, just a bit, with mystery. And a super suspenseful, intricate plot that keeps you wondering and thinking until the very end, then wraps everything up without any questions left in your mind. Whew! What a ride. Masterfully read by David Colacci, I'm so sad that it had to come to an end.
