  • Elegant

    Larry Dickson’s Cabin is compelling. It works on two levels. On one hand, it’s a taut, suspenseful mystery that keeps readers turning pages. On the other, it’s an exploration of memory and storytelling — how communities shape and reshape a tragedy until it becomes both myth and history. Highly recommended
