The Day I Left - Jason Korolenko - Bog

"THE DAY I LEFT is a ghost story, a murder mystery, and a descent into madness, where between France and Arizona the protagonist faces his past catching up with, and overcoming, his presence. I'm walking away from this book feeling dizzy and uncertain of my own circumstance." - Craig Childs, author of APOCALYPTIC PLANET. Jarrod Nelson, a twenty-something American studying in France, is in love with his professor's sister, Caroline. But the professor's sudden, violent death drives a wedge between the lovers, and Jarrod finds himself struggling with demons he thought he'd buried long ago. How far will Jarrod go to win Caroline back? And how far will Caroline go to stay away? A tale of love and madness, the bastard child of BAG OF BONES and SHUTTER ISLAND, THE DAY I LEFT will get its hooks into you on the first page and not let go until well after the last. "A fine debut by a writer with international flare and solid insight into the mania we each, every one of us, carry somewhere within our tortured souls." - Charlie Stella, author of JOHNNY PORNO.
