Narration Supposing Books Skull Session
Back in print and accompanied by its prequel Puppets, the bestselling Skull Session is a classic tale of suspense. Despite his brilliance, Paul Skoglund hasn't held a steady job for years, partly because of his Tourette's syndrome. When his eccentric, wealthy aunt asks him to take on the repairs of her magnificent hunting lodge, he is in no position to refuse. But then he finds that the rambling old house has been savagely vandalized: he discovers a scene of almost superhuman destruction, a violence mirrored by a series of disappearances and grisly deaths haunting the region. Paul delves into the wreckage, wondering what dark passion—and what strength—could cause such chaos. As state police investigator Mo Ford pursues the mystery through official channels, escalating events force Paul deeper into his family's past and into the darker aspects of his own nature.Present Books In Favor Of Skull Session

I really enjoyed this book but the endingAs thrillers go this is a pretty good one. The protagonist has Tourettes Syndrome and as he tries to solve the mystery about his past and his mind he gets caught up in the murder/disappearance of some local youth.Who killed them? Was it a demon, a crazed cop, a psychotic family member, an alien life presence? The book does a good job keeping the reader off balance and guessing.
Paul Skoglund hasn't had a permanent job in years, partly due to his Tourette's syndrom. He's asked by his Aunt Vivian to repair her nineteenth-century hunting lodge in the Hudson Valley. The home has suffered severe damage. Paul had been attending college courses to improve his job prospects but knows he needs steady employment. His former wife, Janet, is attempting to gain custody of their son, Mark, because of Paul's condition.Paul agrees to the repairs. While he's at it, he asks his aunt if
See David S.' review.Well, I heard much more about Tourette's and autism than my ears could take, but I guess it's a learning experience. Paul is fighting Tourette's, and his son Mark, has autism & several other "skull" problems; Paul is carefully fighting his ex for custody. Meanwhile, his aunt wants him to clean up her badly mauled house in Hudson Valley. He begins the job, but finds several missing persons and a gruesome murder(?). At first separately, he and Mo / Morgan (a breath of
Wow, what a book!!I am really stunned how the author put so many pieces of a puzzle into the story, shakes them and gets them back in logic order in a way that kept me reading, reading and wanting to read more.The detective, Mo Ford, is investigating deaths of youth in the area, despite his superior don't want him to do it.Paul and Lia are renovating the badly damaged house of his aunt. At first sight, these things have nothing in common. When the story unfolds though, there are more and more
I picked up this book based on my enjoyment of Daniel Hechts Cree Black series. I didnt enjoy it nearly as much. An unemployed teacher, who happens to have Turrets, takes on the job of renovating his aunts large home. In the renovation process he uncovers many family secrets. Reading this book I never really got to like any of the characters, so those horrible family secrets didnt mean a lot to me. Finished the book only because I felt I should.
