Dead Vault
Arclight's in trouble. Out of work and out of time, he's losing his own mind in search of someone else's. That's the good news. It seems that dementia isn't the only thing in North Tree, Iowa that is in the business of swallowing hearts. When Arc goes down, he goes down hard. Make it to the end, and realize why the question really isn't "Will Arc Adams survive the dead vault?" but "Will he want to?"

This was a much better book than I expected it to be from the cover. Eness is a very good writer on a sentence level. His prose isn't flashy, but it's always coherent and flows easily. The plot is fairly simple but rendered well, and all the characters are fleshed out. He gets the dynamics of life in a small town in the Upper Midwest just right, which is no surprise, since he grew up in one and lives in another. All in all, this book is well worth reading, and I'm glad I took a chance on it.
