HTML:"An absolute gem of literary suspense, pitting ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances and told in a smooth, assured, and often haunting voice, <i>Two Days Gone</i> is a terrific read.". Michael Koryta, New York Times bestselling author of Those Who Wish Me Dead. HTML:"Randall Silvis' <i>Two Days Gone</i> is a smart, twisting, vividly written thriller anchored by two deeply flawed yet fascinating protagonists. Yes, the novel provides cat-and-mouse suspense as a horrific murder in a college town is investigated, but it's also a deeply rewarding story about friendship, family, fame, and the complicated relationship between readers and writers. Anyone who wants to dismiss thrillers as mere genre fluff should read <i>Two Days Gone</i>.". David Bell, author of Since She Went Away. HTML:"Beneath the momentum of the investigation lies a pervasive sadness that will stick with you long after you've turned the last page.<br /> ". Kirkus Reviews. "...[a] skillfully written thriller.". Publishers Weekly. HTML:<p>October 24, 2016<br /> In this skillfully written thriller set in western Pennsylvania from Silvis (<em>On Night’s Shore</em>), Thomas Huston, a respected Shenango College professor and acclaimed author, appears to have murdered his wife, Claire, and their three children in their beds. Huston recently lost both his parents. Did he snap? Sgt. Ryan DeMarco, a state policeman and a friend of the suspect—who’s coping with his own personal tragedy—takes the case hoping to find some answers. On the Shenango campus, he meets a student, Nathan Briessen, who steers him to information about a novel that Huston was researching. Literary references to Nabokov and Poe, some meta-moments about characters and writers, fiction and truth, as well as DeMarco’s complicated relationship with his wife, Laraine, add seasoning to the plot. By alternating between Huston and DeMarco’s narratives, Silvis nimbly puzzles out what took place on the night of the multiple murders, and what it means to go on after a loss. <em>Agent: Sandy Lu, L.
