Where Do the Children Play by Tom Evans, is a coming of age story set in 1950's America. It's filled with intrigue, wonder, and moments that will make the heart melt, all told through the innocent voice of a child. We thoroughly enjoyed this novel and hope to read more from the author soon. You'll love it too if you enjoy such movies as Stand By Me and Mystic River. So stow your favorite baseball cards, grab your bikes and let's go! We're about to find out Where the Do the Children Play...

This is the story of Rory and Wesley who are twins who have been adopted. . A four-year-old boy is kidnapped and murdered and Wesley is very interested in the suspect, as there seems to be a link between the killer and the twins that he want to figure out.

I liked the book a lot and it’s not my usual cup of tea! Didn’t drag too much and though it was sometimes sad in all it was a highly enjoyable read.
