LOCUST LANE

Stephen Amidon’s Locust Lane is a taut and utterly propulsive story about the search for justice and the fault lines of power and influence in a seemingly idyllic town.

“Amidon’s compulsively readable, richly plotted crime novel is a tour de force that grabs readers’ attention and doesn’t let go until the final page.”
—Booklist, starred review

“Amidon’s very good at twisting in and out of his different characters’ consciousness; you keep wondering who to root for, right up to the end. Very satisfactory, and I’ll be looking for Amidon’s other work.”
—The Seattle Times

“And when three teenagers who were partying with the murdered girl all become suspects, their parents will do anything to protect them in this taut, twist-filled thriller.”
