David R. Williams, born in 1949, experienced the '60s up close and personal. Taking 1968 off before entering college, he shipped out with the merchant marines, fought against the Vietnam War, worked to elect McCarthy president, rioted in Grant Park, and arrived at Harvard in time for the campus takeover. He later earned a Masters in Theology from Harvard Divinity School and a PhD in American Civilization from Brown. He wrote Wilderness Lost and Sin Boldly! and won the "Excellence In Teaching" Award at George Mason University. He was a Fulbright Scholar in Czechoslovakia in 1991, has two sons, Nathan and Sam, and lives in a former black community, "Swampoodle," where he writes and brews his own bitter beer.
Point of No Return meets While You Were Sleeping...with a twist of goth and one seriously bad serial killer!
This book really held my interest all the way through, but then the ending came and went in a flash. With so much build up, I would have thought the ending would take longer to complete itself - not so.
The detail given to describe the setting of each scene was incredible. Also, you were provided deep insight into the characters, even the lesser ones. There was nothing vague about this book.
Formatting was off on the Kindle, but it wasn't too distracting after a while.
