Review: Dysfunction Plus
Rating: 2 out of 5
Date: 12 14, 2012
Virtually every family appearing on this novel's stage is badly dysfunctional.  Add to that a protagonist who appears to be desperately searching to be victimized, and that pretty well describes this novel's plot--which begins with the bridegroom disappearing on his weddding day.  The polce are a sad, bungling lot when faced with one or two unexplained deaths, and the survivors spend their time hiding incidents from their past.  While the reader may not much care to find out what happens next, there are enough teasers to make one keep turning the pages.
