In the Gus LeGarde Mystery, Double Fort , writer Aaron Paul Lazar weaves an absorbing tale of love, intrigue, and murder. Set in the snow-covered hills of Upstate New York, the story moves rapidly right from page one to the final word on the final page. Its multilayered plot pulls the reader along without unnecessary complications.
As Double Fort unfolds, we experience a range of powerful emotions-humor, passion, hatred, and fear. Lazar's erudite grasp of human nature shines through the rolling dialog and interplay of the characters. The credible personalities develop quickly and each is essential to the imaginative depth of the story.
Lazar is a master at capturing detail. Whatever the scene, from the chit chat while washing dishes at a church social, to sinking toward certain death at the bottom of an icy lake, Lazar artfully crafts imagery that vividly grows in the reader's imagination. And Lazar's use of dreams to segue is a novel and welcomed device that provides further insight into the psyche of the hero, Gus LeGarde.
Double Fort is a compelling thriller and a splendid addition to the mystery genre. We eagerly look forward to the next installment in Aaron Paul Lazar's "Gus LeGarde Mysteries."
