Unburied Memories - Hardcover

by David C. Powers (Author)

In 1962, five-year-old John Townsend believes he has witnessed a brutal murder at a local playground. As his memories fade, the nightmares intensify. In fifth grade, John, with aid from pals Vince and Billy, uncover evidence deep in the spooky Woods implicating a mysterious neighbor. Braving the restless '70s, the teenage crew recruits Karen and Melissa to help stir up the pot. Unable to sleep, John takes things into his own hands, maybe going a little too far. Approaching thirty and sure the past is far behind, John reminisces about what might have been. Schoolmates encourage a fateful trip back to his small New Jersey hometown. Longtime friends transform while unburied evil lurks, turning life into a living hell. Quietly struggling with middle age in an insane new world, John dares to take the family on one final road trip north. Seeking the truth should never be so disturbing or dangerous. . . .
