1-31-11 The Shimmer by David Morrell - Fiction

5 - Morrell has taken an unexplained phenomena and written a story around it that still leaves the reader wondering what was really going on. Based on actual sightings, The Shimmer tells the story of a couple who are drawn into the chaos surrounding mysterious lights that occur after dark on the edge of Rostov, Texas. The story builds and becomes the action/thriller that Morrell is known for, pulling in the military and local law enforcement as well as the media. This subject matter is a little different for Morrell but no less satisfying. He remains one of my favorite authors.
