The In Between
How many rights does it take to correct the past?
Havenville is a small town that lives on secrets and lies. A missing girl from a prominent family, taken in broad daylight, threatens to reveal all the debauchery of the past. The only suspect, a young man recently released from prison for a prior murder conviction for the killing of two high school aged boys fifteen years before. Back in jail, the only person the suspect will talk to is a friend of his deceased father. An alcoholic county jailer who has his own secrets and ties to the missing girl.
With the assistance of a reporter who grew up in Havenville and a mysterious priest who met with the young man in prison, the authorities search through the deception as time runs out in the search for the missing girl.
The In Between leaves us caught amongst what we are told is real and what we know to be true. What we need to worry about and what we are unable to change. It dictates the mundane and leaves us trapped, surrounded by what is right and what is wrong. In between love and hate, past and present, strife and happiness, pleasure and pain and birth and death.
All the words that were never spoken in between the ones that were.
The In Between is where the truth is concealed.

Decent but his first book was so much better, this one had its ups and downs and just sometimes hard to follow.
