Fiction
It is June 1971. Dominick Pindle, a tenderhearted but
aimless Massachusetts teenager, spends his nights driving
around with his mother and dragging his wayward father out
of bars. Late one evening, Dominick's search puts him
face-to-face withhis father's seductive mistress, Edie
Kramer. Instantly in lust, he begins a forbidden
relationship with this beautiful, mysterious woman. Before
long, though, their erotic entanglement leads to a shocking
death, and Dominick discovers that the mother he betrayed
hid secrets as dark and destructive as his own. Charged with the exhilarating narrative pace of a thriller
and set during a complicated and explosive era, Boy Still
Missing is the critically acclaimed debut novel from John
Searles. It renders a deeply affecting portrait of a boy
whose passage into adulthood proves as complex and
impassioned as the history that unfolds before his eyes.
