Rise the Dark
Autor Michael Korytaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2018
Mark
Novak's
greatest
mystery
may
be
his
own...
Rise
the
dark.These
were
the
last
words
written
in
Lauren
Novak's
notebook
before
she
was
murdered
in
a
strange
Florida
village.
They've
never
meant
anything
to
the
police
or
to
her
husband,
investigator
Markus
Novak.
Now
the
man
he
believes
killed
her
is
out
of
prison,
and
draws
Markus
to
the
place
he's
avoided
for
so
long:
the
lonely
road
where
his
wife
was
shot
to
death
beneath
the
cypress
trees
and
Spanish
moss
in
a
town
called
Cassadaga.
In Red Lodge, Montana, a senseless act of vandalism shuts the lights off in the town where Sabrina Baldwin is still trying to adjust to a new home and mourning the loss of her brother, who was a high voltage linesman just like her husband, Jay. As the spring's final snowstorm calls Jay deeper into the mountains, chasing the destruction on the electrical grid, Sabrina is abducted by Garland Webb, the man Markus Novak believes killed his wife. Drawing them all together is a messianic villain who understands that you can never outpace your past. You can only rise against the future.

Reviews
"A superb thriller literally humming and buzzing with power and tension, given depth and resonance by Koryta's fascination with pitting lone human emotion against a vast and forbidding landscape."—Lee Child
"This book arrived with high praise from several stars of the genre--"A master," says Stephen King; "Outstanding," adds Lee Child--and they're right.Rise the Darkis both first-rate entertainment and an unusually interesting thriller in terms of its characters, its plot and the ideas it explores, which include the electrical grid, Tesla's history, spiritualism, and the nation's possible vulnerability to a right-wing takeover."—Washington Post
"Among his many gifts, Michael Koryta is a virtuoso in his use of outdoor settings... his thrillers present the great outdoors in their most frightening aspects. The book's atmospheric power and strong cast of supporting characters makeRise the Darkcompelling from the get-go."—Chicago Tribune
"Welcome to Michael Koryta's latest nightmare.... Wonderfully eerie scenes... [and] distinct thrills."—Marilyn Stasio,New York Times Book Review
"Koryta always uses setting to great effect in his bestselling thrillers... InRise The Dark, Koryta again constructs a hold-your-breath thriller around believable characters and the bonds, familial and romantic and ideological, that bind them. It's a wild ride."—Tampa Bay Times
"Koryta has a gift for terrific suspense that immerses the reader while also delivering prose that almost reads like poetry....[A] road that should definitely be traveled."—Associated Press
"For fans of darker mystery and suspense, you won't be disappointed."—Marion Star
"A frightening thriller about the holes in our infrastructure and the security protecting it. In this second Markus Novak novel, following 2015'sLast Words, Koryta effectively combines a compelling premise, a villain who seems too smart to be stopped, and a revealing look at the hero's dysfunctional family."—Booklist
"As with his spellbinding 2014 effort,Those Who Wish Me Dead, Koryta employs the desolate Montana setting with such mastery and deep sense of mystery that it's a compelling character itself. And with an intriguing cody that reverberates with themes of family, myth, and psychic possibility, this new novel leaves us keenly anticipating the next installment of the Novak saga. Again proving himself one of today's top thriller writers, Koryta creates edgy suspense not with trickery but with characters who test the limits of their courage."—Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)
"[With] a compelling narrative, relatable characters, and action scenes that play out like a blockbuster film, Koryta has written his best book to date. Highly recommended for fans of the author and readers of Dan Brown and Dennis Lehane."—Library Journal (starred review)
"Michael Koryta is very creative in his creation of characters, but he is even more successful in his establishment of place."—Huffington Post
"Rise The Darkis a powerfully written and fast moving novel...a perfect end of summer read."—LitReactor
