How It Happened
By Michael Koryta
368 pages
Koryta drew on his experience as a private eye to craft this
harrowing suspense novel set in Maine. After years away from the town where he
spent his childhood summers, a popular seaside vacation spot shrouded by deep
pine woods, FBI agent Rob Barrett returns to investigate the murders of the
resident good girl and her boyfriend. Like a lighthouse casting its glow across
the water, his search reveals the murkiness beneath Port Hope's placid surface.
