This Town Sleeps by Dennis E. Staples

4.0

This Town Sleeps is an atmospheric journey more than it is a mystery. We follow Marion and are introduced to many other characters connected to him trying to learn a truth from his past. I wish the final chapter had focused more on Marion’s voice rather than his white LI Shannon, because I would have preferred Marion’s epiphany over his boyfriend’s. I pretty much devoured this story in two sittings, and I’m looking forward to reading more from this author after this solid debut.
