Veteran Journalist Impresses Thriller Fans with First Book

Elsa Bonstein’s “Find Edsell!” (Abbott Press, 2014) features a compelling and complex plot, a host of richly drawn characters, and a mysterious setting – essential ingredients for a gripping and exciting thriller.
 
In “Find Edsell!,” a drunken 17-year old Edsell Jones struggles to get home from the Jersey Shore when he is offered a ride by a stranger. The lad accepts the ride – and falls into a trap of a doctor who carries out questionable experiments at a renovated farmhouse in the Pine Barrens. When Edsell’s mother finds him missing, she immediately calls his friends and the police. Soon the search for Edsell involves a lot of people, including a former army commando, a naturalist studying the Pine Barrens, and Edsell’s pals who stumble upon the doctor’s secret facility in the Barrens. Adding to the already exciting story is the threat of a wildfire that threatens to wipe out the entire woods.
 
“Find Edsell!” is a superb thriller you won’t be able to put down.
