Part Memoir, part mystery, is a novel but also not. We traverse through the town of Greenwood and the lives and secrets of its inhabitants jumping around people, and time.
This isn't a straight A to B linear storyline but weaves through time, moving backwards and forwards with fragments of ideas, memories and story dropping in and out. Very SGJ, definitely not one to start with.if you're new to his work.
