The Jagged Tree
Alan has what appears to be the perfect life. His own house on the beach in the quiet town of Shallot's Cove. A thriving coffee shop and bookstore. Then, on the morning of his 34th birthday, a single phone call changes everything... His mother, Beverly Black, is discovered buried under a gnarled old apple tree in her own backyard. Everything he's ever known, everything he's grown up believing to be true, is left ripped to shreds. Now, Alan must risk everything - even the lives of his friends - in a race against time to try to stop his mother's killer...because he's next. Adult language warning.

*** MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS***
Alan Black is a man many of us can relate to, or at least aspire to be. Despite what is revealed to be a hard up-bringing, Alan manages to cultivate a serene life in the small town of Shallot's Cove, living in a lovely beach-front home, and operating a successful bookstore/coffee shop called Bookends.
Kristoffer Law executes a gripping tale of suspense and real-world horror that evokes feelings of sympathy, anger, grief, and hope. From the opening cover to the end, readers are whisked away on a roller-coaster of horrible events along with Alan and his entourage, which culminates in an unexpected ending that leaves readers asking the question: what comes next for Alan Black?
The Jagged Tree is Kristoffer Law's first novel, and he is currently working on the sequel. He is an author to keep your eye on, for it is this reviewer's impression that this work is only the beginning of Mr. Law's race, and he has sprung strongly from the gate.
