I love it when authors veer off the beaten path.  That was definitely the case with Fountain and I thoroughly enjoyed it.This was the case with this deeply layered story that kept me glued to the pages  well past my bedtime.The characters were all well -crafted  throughout and the plot was excellent.The part about Cabot’s ship in the beginning when he left the wounded man made my stomach churn and gave me chills- a great example of the author’s ability to paint a picture with words that elicited such strong physical response from the reader.Then we have the group of boys running home to tell their mother they were attacked by bats- but wait, I think I’m headed towards giving out spoilers.This book is fast paced and the author takes you all over- on a wild rollercoaster  ride that is a true pleasure to be a part of.There are some  very graphic descriptions in this story – just a heads up if you have a queasy stomach (and I do) but I still kept reading as I was determined to know what happened next.Riveting story.  This author is a keeper.
