G. L. Smith, a secretive and gifted graphic artist, has a $100,000 alarm system in his shack in the woods and creates comic books. A recluse and unknown by anyone that he is Gabriel "Gabe" Leary, he's a local who becomes the town hero. The town, primarily originating from three main families, soon has the residents collaborating when the teenage niece of an elderly man disappears, leaving behind a bloody path and forcing them to band together in her rescue. Reagan, the teen, has finally found a place to belong, only to be in jeopardy of losing it all.
SOMEWHERE ALONG THE WAY is a delightful story with as much love and warmth as there is terror and fear. The residents are all caring people, but not without their own crosses to bear. Gabe is truly unique and you can't help but have admiration for him and fall a little in love with him. This is terrific reading from page one to the end. Jodi Thomas is a passionate writer who puts real feeling into her characters.
