Why read it?

1 author picked Comes the Blind Fury as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I've had a fascination with small New England towns since childhood, intrigued by how they are portrayed as romantic yet forbidding if not outright hostile to outsiders.

Comes the Blind Fury beautifully satisfies this fascination as John masterfully weaves a tale of secrets small-town residents collude - willingly or not - to hide, uncovering a motivation that proves even one bad apple can destroy a crop and burying your head in the sand does not release you from guilt.

A riveting tale that leaves you guessing who is friend and who is foe right to the dramatic end.
