About this product

Product Information

Called "one of the most original talents to emerge in the '90s" by Kirkus Reviews, award-winning author Laurie R. King delivers an intelligent, terrifying, engrossing drama of good and evil, unlike any she has written before.... A respected university professor, Anne Waverly has a past known to few: Years ago, her own unwitting act cost Anne her husband and daughter. Fewer still know that this history and her academic specialty--alternative religious movements--have made her a brilliant FBI operative. Four times she has infiltrated suspect communities, escaping her own memories of loss and carnage to find a measure of atonement. Now, as she begins to savor life once more, she has no intention of taking another assignment. Until she learns of more than one hundred children living in the Change movement's Arizona compound.... Anne soon realizes that Change is no ordinary community and hers is no ordinary mission. For, far from appeasing the demons of her past, this assignment is sweeping her back into their clutches...and to the razor's edge of danger.

  • A Darker Place

    Laurie R. King is on of the greatest mtstery writers of this century. Ms. Kings writing is highly inventive, her characterizations exceptional, and her topic research/knowledge jaw-dropping. I recommend every book she has written since the beginning of her publishing career. Thank you Laurie for your wonderful body of work. Linda P. Brown, PhD, RN University of Pennsylvania

  • A Darker Place by Laurie R. King

    The heroine was interesting, but the story plot was a bit boring and the reason for the cult was highly unlikely and generally unreal. It was fairly well written, but seemed to be forced as far as story line. The ending was blah. I wouldn't recommend it a reader who enjoys a realistic adventure story.
