Review Dark River by Avery Jenkins


Guest Review by Mark S.

“You know a little about everything, forget nothing anyone has said to you, can look at a piece of jade and know it’s age, where it was carved, by whom, and what the artist’s second child was named.”

What an interesting and enveloping novel! I felt like I was brought into to the author’s universe right from the first page and I kept wanting more.  Avery Jenkins really has a talent for not only crafting a mystery, but creating a perfect small-town atmosphere that reminds me of an Agatha Christie novel, with metaphysical elements to make it even more gripping!

The story is about Asa Cire, a man who runs a very specialized antique shop that leans toward items that are difficult—and sometimes illegal—to obtain. Asa lives a fairly quiet life in a small town and he seems to have a working knowledge of everything in the universe, from dead languages to eastern wisdom to healing plants.  But, at the beginning of the novel, Asa is faced with a problem even he can’t solve when he finds himself having a strange vision of a dead teenage girl during a round of meditation in his home.

Disturbed by the vision, Asa soon discovers that the teenage girl is real and was murdered in the town twenty years earlier. Her killer was never caught and the case was never solved. Asa takes it upon himself to unravel the mystery behind the brutal killing and get justice for the girl, but first he must find out how all of the pieces of the case come together, including a strange woman who showed up at his house and an ancient indecipherable manuscript.

This book is one that you will definitely want to check out. I love a good mystery and I was fascinated with the way this one played out. ‘Dark River’ is unmissable! I give it five stars.
