Silver by Dylan Thyer

 

 

I don’t avoid horror, but I don’t seek it out.  This book surprised me.  I really enjoyed it.  It is difficult to tiptoe around the plot in an effort to avoid spoilers.   The story is set in a small Kansas town.  

 

Brett, Dalton, and their mother move to Mattfield, Kansas, due to marital discord.   Julia, the mom, is devastated, hurt, and retreats to her hometown to lick her emotional devastation wounds. 

 

The boys are resentful of leaving their known life and being the new kids in high school.  Events in town, precipitated by petty thieves, spiral out of control.  A wealth of characters are brought together to deal with the issues.  There is a world-renowned big-game hunter, a trouble-shooter from an ancient secret society, a Native American warrior, and the father of the boys to provide color and depth to the plot.

 

I enjoyed the book; be prepared for excitement and loss.  I recommend the book.
