There is something about a good suspense thriller that makes it feel as if the "Summer Reading" season has truly arrived.
The Two Deaths of Daniel Hayes is the first book I have ever read by Marcus Sakey, but I admit I was a bit impressed. The book starts with a man in a silver BMW with California plates in Maine. He doesn't know who he is or how he got there, but after a local cop tries to apprehend him, he knows he is in some sort of trouble. He makes his way back to California in hopes of finding out who he really is and why the police is after him. Once he gets to California he discovers that he is a famous screenwriter and he is wanted for questioning in the death of his movie star wife, Laney. Daniel Hayes may not have his memory, but he is positive he did not murder his wife. But who did?
The Two Death's of Daniel Hayes is a fast paced, suspense thriller. The writing is intelligent and Marcus Sakey stays one step of his readers as he takes on a roller coaster ride. This book will be perfect for you to read as you are sitting at the beach.
