For young Stanley Mitchell, Jr., 1958 is quickly becoming a year of newfound joys and thrilling adventure. Beginning with the discovery of hidden love letters, and an uneasy meeting with Buster Lighthorse Smith, the Dewdrop Drive-in's elderly projectionist and former reservation policeman, Stanley learns about blues music, Sherlock Holmes, racism, and lost dreams. Through the natural course of growing up, he discovers the true nature of his father's heart; the love of his mother and sister and house servant, Rosy; and becomes involved in a forbidden world that exists beneath Dewmont, Texas, like dirt and bacteria beneath a beautiful carpet. Stanley enters a forbidden world of secrets filled with death and darkness, jealous lovers, and ghostly occurrences-until he finds the real murderer of the young girl who wrote the love letters he found, and becomes the murderer's next target.

This was great. I wish I would have gotten the unabridged version. It was a great story, with interesting characters. The narrator did a good job as well. I highly recommend it.

I really enjoyed this story and the characters were very life-like and well developed. Worth a listen, definitely different then any others I've listened to.

Fine Dark LIne

This was off beat, but held your attention. It is much in the style of Stephen King, but not quite as riveting. Some of it was a little hard to follow but it's well worth listening to if you like this genre.

The narrator is great...the story is ok..at times the storyline becomes a bit drawn out...but overall I enjoyed it.

I found this book to be very enjoyable. The ending was a big surprise. I thought the narrator, Dick Hill, did a great job with all of the characters. This is very important in order for the book to come alive.
