A great summer read

Yesterday I read Dominance by Will Lavender, staying up late to finish because there was no way I could just leave the last twenty pages until morning. Told in intertwining time periods, 1994 and present day, this story is riveting. Here'ssome of the back cover:

Who is Paul Fallows? Jasper College is buzzing with the news that famed literature professor Richard Aldiss will be teaching a night class called Unraveling a Literary Mystery-from his prison cell. Twelve years before, Aldiss was convicted of the murder of two female grad students;they were killed with axe blows and their bodies decorated with the novels of reclusive author Paul Fallows...

For some reason, I've always been drawn to books that are about..well...books. And their mysterious, might not even exist, authors. Shadow of the Wind is the ultimate of these, in my opinion, but Dominance kept me up well past my bedtime. And yeah, it even had me leaping from my bathroom to the bed after I shut off the lights because I was freaked out. You might want to read this one in the daytime...
