Into the River Mark Brandi
Publisher Legend Press Paperback books
Growing up in a small country town, Ben and Fab spend their days playing cricket, wanting a pair of Nike Air Maxes and not talking about how Fab’s dad hits him, or how the sudden death of Ben’s next-door neighbour unsettled him. Almost teenagers, they already know some things are better left unsaid.
Then a newcomer arrived. Fab reckoned he was a secret agent and he and Ben staked him out. He looked strong. Maybe even stronger than Fab’s dad. Neither realised the shadow this man would cast over both their lives.
Twenty years later, Fab is going nowhere but hoping for somewhere better. Then a body is found in the river, and Fab can’t ignore the past any more.
MY REVIEW
Mark Brandi is an excellent author who has got into the minds of two young boys, Ben and Fab. Boys will be boys who talk about girls and specially one girl who has died. They are young boys that play near a river when they not supposed to be any where near there, but once again boys will be boys who enjoy a bit of mischief. Then when a new neighbour moves in within the area their imagination seems to runaway with them thinking that the new man in their neighbourhood is a secret agent and begin to watch him closely. Highly entertaining a strong recommendation from me. I have enjoyed this book so much I will be definitely looking out for more books by Mark Brandi.
