Evan Kilgore-The Children of Black Valley

A family is destroyed when their child vanishes. Riley Mackey is the son of Sam and Ann Mackie. One day Riley just disappears. His room remains as it was on his last day at home but his mother and father are separated. Riley's disappearance caused a rift between the couple that even their other son Danny couldn't span. Danny never knew Riley but he knows where his room is and he knows that it is off limits to him. Sam is tied to his job and although Danny lives with him he spends very little time with the boy. Now something has happened that pulls Sam and Ann back together and makes Sam forget about any responsibility except his family. Danny disappears. This time though Sam and Ann are going to leave no stone unturned until they locate their son and bring him home. Sam is determined that he will show Danny how much he loves him and how sorry he is for the time spent at work instead of with his son. Sam has always been haunted by a vision of a dark tower. This goes back to his childhood when he went from one foster home to another. Now it seems that somehow this dark tower has played a part not only in the life of Sam but also his son Riley and his son Danny. Sam has one friend, a fellow worker that believes in him and his theory. A police officer believes Sam and risks his life as well as his career to help Sam and Ann to track down where Danny is and if he is still alive. This book is shocking and haunting and I hope and pray that the writing is only something formed in the author's imagination and not something that could actually happen.
