5/22/2023 0 Comments Dead Connection by Charlie PriceThis is something different.”- Booklist “There is a Crutcher-like sensibility in the balanced but unambiguous portrayals of adults-while some are brutal, negligent, and blameworthy, others show nothing but compassion and understanding for the kids that these former monsters have messed up. Readers will like the edginess and be intrigued by the extrasensory elements as well as the darker turns the mystery takes. Readers will find themselves rooting for these characters.”- Publishers Weekly, Starred Review “By delving into the adults problems as they meld with the mystery of Nikkis disappearance, Price has given the book an adult veneer. Even the people in supporting roles are extremely well developed, especially the cemetery caretaker and his daughter, both of whom play crucial roles in Murrays maturation. “This superb debut novel concerns two very different individuals trying to discover the fate of a high school cheerleader who disappeared from a small California town.
