      Apprehending fugitives as a part of the US Marshals' elite SOG team gives Deputy US Marshal Tucker Shaw the purpose and drive he needs to fight the demons from his past. When he’s called out to track down a group of endangered children, he has no idea how drastically his life is about to change. The mother of one of the missing girls, Riley Bishop, has credible evidence on who is behind her daughter's disappearances, but the situation quickly spirals out of control with a final shocking twist that has Tucker questioning everything he knows to be true.

 

     

     

     

I     If you've ever read a psychological thriller, you know that it's the twists and turns that make this genre so addicting. One of the unique features of these stories is the unsettling voice of an unreliable narrator--a character whose point of view can't be trusted. Often these books are told in first person, because that gives the reader a chance to be able to delve deeper into the mind of the character.

But are you really seeing the truth?

The problem is that the characters might be deliberately deceiving the readers, or the characters might actually be the ones deceived. Psychology plays a fascinating part in this. What happens when our unconscious mind bends our perception of what is real, and even tries to fill in the gaps, making it possible to perceive things that aren’t really there? Think of an amputee who still feels his missing leg, or how it’s possible to see patterns in chaos. Memories are sprinkled with gaps, and we can fill in those gaps with our own created recollections. These can all be a part of the unique role of an unreliable narrator--and a fascinating ride for the reader.
