After reading stories like The Trunk Key, Seismic Shift (Kindle Single), Phoenix Heart, and Love is Strong as Death, I've become a big fan of Carolyn Nash's writing. She excels at writing taut, suspenseful prose that moves along quickly to a dramatic climax, and "Out of the Fog" is no exception. If Molly Deacon had only ignored the three bullies picking on a helpless stranger, she could have been on her way in her SUV and never given it a second thought. Instead, her "Queen B!tch Temper," as her husband called it, erupted, and she and the stranger quickly found themselves on the run from a homicidal maniac. With darkness coming on and a heavy, bone-chilling cold fog settling in, the two faced grim odds of escaping with their lives. And it didn't help that Molly had a fertile imagination that constantly conjured up disaster films in her mind.Out of the Fog is a fast-paced, gripping story that I enjoyed very much. Molly Deacon is a marvelous character who I would love to see more of.
