From Publishers Weekly

Six years ago Miles Gale's first wife was murdered. Three years later his second wife disappeared. Now his youngest son has vanished from the back seat of their car. Seeking clues in the disturbing pattern of events, the police are unwittingly led by Gale's second wife, Marie, a demoness who can traverse time and cloud men's minds. Marie killed Gale's first wife so she could have a son by him, and has now claimed the boy. Wright ( The Place ) fails to convince: there are so many loose threads that the plot seems never to have been woven, and attempts at characterization seem limited to players who make only cameo appearances. This effort to straddle the horror/fantasy boundary disappoints in both genres.

From School Library Journal

YA-- An intriguing book about the sudden disappearance of six-year-old Aaron Gale. While riding with his older brother, C. J., and their father, Miles, the child simply vanishes from the vehicle. This alone is odd enough, but the 8-year-old murder of Miles's first wife remains unsolved; his second wife, Marie, disappeared just 18 months before Aaron and has not been heard of since. Coupled with such suspicious events are C. J.'s photographic memory and his father's work as an archaeologist. Some of the characters are introduced only superficially, yet this weakness is slight in contrast to the spellbinding plot. The book could enhance the curriculum in several areas--mysticism, Native Americans, parapsychology--in addition to being an enjoyable piece of fiction.

This review is from: Little Boy Lost (Mass Market Paperback)
Phenomenal! This is one of those rare thrillers that applies a Jamesian "turn of the screw" with accomplished flair. The novel itself is compelling, but the real treat stems from the shifting viewpoints, including a protagonist with an eideitic memory, combined with evocative, streamlined prose. I've been a T.M. Wright fan for years. His works frustrated me as a teenager because they did not culminate in a crystal-clear solution. But something about his haunting style, the enigmatic plots, and the mysterious ghosts populating his fiction always drew me back. As an adult I am better able to appreciate Wright's ambiguous style and finesse -- adults are, by definition, simply more "haunted" than children. I've revisited many of his novels over the past few years and they never disappoint. This is one of his finest, one that undoubtedly influenced other novelists in the field. Wright is indeed the unsung hero of literary American horror fiction.
