In the Darkest Time of Night

Missing. Fans of science fiction thrillers are those readers most likely to enjoy the debut novel by Jeremy Finley titled, The Darkest Time of Night. The action starts with a child gone missing. Before long, we learn that more than one child is missing. Finley builds the story one element at a time, postponing my reckoning with a less than willing suspension of disbelief. By the time the story turned sci-fi, I was engaged in the plot and with the characters and wanted to stay with the story to the end. After learning what happened to the missing, I was fully committed and enjoyed the novel to the end, despite nagging incredulity.
