Review: Final Assignment

Final Assignment Final Assignment by Linwood Barclay
My rating: 0 of 5 stars

Great short story set in Promise Falls. A teenaged boy is expelled for writing a sadistic essay and his friend goes missing for a day and night. PI Cal Weaver, a friend of the missing boy's family, is called to try to help locate him. The story has an interesting twist.

I love this author's writing. He gets right to the point in language that is plain and simply enjoyable. I am looking forward to the next installment, Far From True due out in March.
