Publisher Description
"A complex and chilling tale of friends, family and the often murderous secrets that hide in the dark" from the award-winning author of Bone White (Robert McCammon, New York Times–bestselling author).
The Piper has come to take the children away…
In the fall of 1993, fifteen-year-old Angelo Mazzone sees his first dead body. The murder is linked to the Piper, the possible abductor of three other children—who haven't been found—over the past few months.
Some people in town say the woods are haunted, but Angelo and his friends head in anyway, to search the darkness for a monster. What they find there will change who they are—and everything they once believed in…
"A frightening, thoroughly engaging read…that needle[s] the mind and tug at the heart in the best way…. A triumph of suspense, an affectionate ode to adolescence and by far Ronald Malfi's strongest effort to date."—Horror Novel Reviews
"Feels a bit like Stephen King crossed with Dennis Lehane…. Horror and crime fans will find much to like here."—Booklist
Customer Reviews
Excellent Story
This was a great story. More interesting than the mystery of the missing children is the camaraderie of the five boys. Superb characters, beautiful way the small town is brought to light. Everything is wonderfully written, I feel that I lived it. I am glad I read this book.
