5.0 out of 5 stars
Tight as a drum, fast as an eagle, April 8 2002
This review is from: Martyrs (Paperback)
I got to read this in manuscript, and am delighted to see it now for sale. The plot is as tight as a drum, and the pacing is as fast as an eagle. Van Belkom draws on his own Catholic heritage for this tale of an archeological dig in Northern Ontario. In lesser hands, this could have been a predictable, standard book, but van Belkom brings freshness, and genuine creepiness, to this novel. It'll be a great summer read for when you're out in the country -- just don't forget to look behind yourself from time to time.
