Book Review

 

Robert Dugoni's, '' My sister's grave '' is a mix of mind-boggling questions and twists. Dugoni's impeccable way of making the protagonist, Tracy Crosswhite, ask the questions coming from the readers as they read. Both Tracy and the readers on the same step throughout the story, knowing only that much of uncovered.

 

 Reminiscent past times, humor, all make a good base for a thriller novel. The utter boldness of characters, ferocity on a peak, but timely pecks the more emotional venture. Slipping in-jokes, during the most crucial court hearings, the soft side of the aggressive dogs, and most importantly, the geography of the novel.

 

A Setting of the northern Cascade mountains. The best site for campers, ranges, and hikers.

Or eventually a site for a missing person presumed dead. 

 

The plot - Young Sarah Crosswhite goes missing for nearly 20 years. cross-state, border Searches conducted months into her disappearance availed no boon. Only to find Sarah's remains exactly in the place she went missing all those years ago.

 

Robert Dugoni, author of the New York Times best-selling series, David Sloane.

Surprises us with this novel. A mix of suspense, anticipation, and anxiety piling up with each chapter. It glued me to the book each day, one other thing to look up to each day. 

 

It had been a long while since I read a good book and knowing thriller was one of my favorite genres, I had to get this book.

 

Reading a novel or a book is a habit for many reasons unknown. But for me, It is a second world, a Nirvana, a distraction from the world we live in. Seeking peace and solace or sharing a throbbing heart with the character. 

 

Mostly, The amazing way the author, using 24 letters and over 2 dozen grammatical rules alongside their literary license create chapters of characters in quest or conquest. English, a unique language, I feel, can be molded, shaped per one's desire to create masterpieces like this novel. 

 

The most beautiful part of reading a book is the fact that you're reading it, and the saddest is the fact that every day you inch to the end. I tried to avoid that as if it were the plague. But I couldn't, and here we are. 

 

'' Une partie du voyage est la fin '' 

Part of the journey is the end.

 

just have to learn to live with it.

 

Reading and writing had always been a part of my life, and I hope for the years to come, it stays the same.

 

‘’ If on the unfortunate events of me going missing, like so our protagonist's sister in the novel,       Look for me between the warm, compressed sheets of paper-laden with ink, enveloping me in their world. You might just find me lingering there ‘’ – Harshini Raja

 

 

 

THE END…
