Tying Up Loose Ends

When two teens witness a gruesome triple homicide near their fishing lake, the small-town best friends must come to terms with the dangers they face in their rural town as they approach adulthood with a murderer on their trail. After a dismal fishing day, best friends Eddie and BJ pack up their gear as the clouds roll into their sleepy, rural Mississippi town. When they head toward their car, loud and angry voices float from nearby. Concerned, the boys hide in the bushes to discover the source-a choice that will change their lives forever. Two men-Barton and Skin-have three hooded victims at their feet and methodically kill each one. As they clean up their mess, they discover Eddie and BJ's car. Knowing witnesses to their crimes still breathe, Barton and Skin decide to stop at nothing to find and silence the loose ends to their plan. Tying Up Loose Ends is a great thriller book club pick, as it combines the raw humanity of growing up with the heart-pounding thrill of murderers on the loose. It will appeal to anyone who enjoys a work of fiction with characters who blatantly share their joys, fears, and trials through the page.
