The Boy Audible Audio Edition Tami Hoag Hillary Huber Brilliance Audio Books Reviews

• If you enjoy mystery, pain, love and murder, read this book. I confess I read by author and she is one of my favs, but this story just got under my skin. I felt sad, unsettled and confused almost simultaneously and I could not put this book down until I finished the entire book!!!
• Typically I love Tami Hoag books. This one was different. Characters were so flawed they were difficult to like and want to continue to read about. In general this was a depressing book. I would not buy one with these characters again.
• Ms. Hoag makes the Louisiana back country real in both a romantic and terrifying way. A child is sexually molested, another child is murdered in a small town on the edge of the swamp. Are these crimes connected? Sheriff's detective Annie Boussard and her hot blooded Cajun husband, who is also her boss, must try to find the suspect(s) when very few of any clues exist. This mail biting, page turning novel will keep you reading late into the night.
• I had a difficult time staying with this book and skipped more than a few pages. Nick Fourcade is a bully and disguising it under the premise of being "right" doesn't change the facts. I am also not a fan of the squabbling relationship dynamics between Nick and Annie. I found the story more depressing than entertaining.
• I waited over a year for this book to come on my kindle and was not disappointed. I reread "A Thin Red Line" to make sure I remembered the characters. I really loved the story line even though it was emotional. Can't go too much into the story because one wrong step and you ruin the plot for others. It was a fantastic book and maybe next book she will get Chas a permanent girl friend.
• Tami Hoag is an amazing author. This is the 4th book I had read by her, and I was not disappointed. To make things even better, she has set the book in and around south Louisiana, my home. I also love the depth of her characterization. I felt like I could feel what Annie and Nick were feeling. Mrs. Hoag was certainly right when she pointed out the injustices that often occur in law enforcement and in public opinion. Because she gets us into the main characters' heads so well, it is easy to see how even good people can do evil things. I truly didn't figure out who killed the victims until about 30 pages before it ended.the end. The problem with reading a book this well written and compelling is that it is a hard act to follow. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could read next? By the way, if you have not read the three books in her Secrets From the Grave series. do it! They are unbelievably good.
• I am a huge Tami Hoag fan. I have been eagerly waiting for this book, as it's taken much longer for her to publish it since her last novel. As I began, I was excited that she was returning to the Louisiana Bayou, an area where she has based some of her best work. This novel deals with the murders of two children, and this made it very difficult for me to read. As always, her details are brilliant, and I love the way she writes. Unlike many authors, Ms. Hoag will present several characters as possible suspects, and I am never sure who the guilty person might be until the end. However, she is always fair to the reader - it will be one of the suspects that she has given. I am furious when an author suddenly gives a "surprise" perpetrator of the crime at the end of the story. Ms. Hoag never does that. Hopefully, she will not take as long between books as she did with this novel. She is my favorite fiction writer!
• I just finished reading "The Boy." There is no end to the amount of twists, and the author is adept at misleading her readers into suspecting who the killer is. That's precisely why I liked this book so much! We are first introduced to a troubled young single mother, Genevieve Gauthier, who is fleeing from her rented ramshackle of a home where her only son was brutally murdered. Then shortly thereafter, Nick Fourcade visits the crime scene, only to immediately conflict with Keith Kemp, who he thinks is an incompetent CSI officer. In her delightfully complex ensemble of characters, it turns out that Kemp has a checkered past, having gone from a veteran cop to a CSI examiner. Also, having followed the new sheriff, Kelvin Dutrow, from a previous town, Houma, into Bayou Breaux arising suspicion in Detective Fourcade. Tami Hoag lets the reader view the family lives of Nick and Annie, a married couple who are both detectives (Nick being her boss). Dutrow lives with his fiancee, Sharon Spencer, with her troubled child, Cameron. Inner conflicts occur. There is the unsolved case of the Theriot girl, which Nick constantly gets hounded over. There is the Florette family, with Nora, a 12-year-old who was supposed to baby sit for KJ, the murder victim, but is embroiled with her bully brother, Dean Florette, who also bullies the troubled Cameron. Cameron Spicer turns out to be a character that the reader will focus on. The author's attention to detail and setting is keen. The spirit of life in the bayou is nicely captured. The ending of this book begets tragedy in the wake of violence. Don't miss this read!
