As a result of an "episode", Pilot begins seeing psychologist, Katherine Jane DeQuincey-Joy. During their sessions Pilot will tell the disturbing tale of his sister's disappearance. He will tell of his mother seeing ghost's, and he will tell of a dark side that brother Eric hides so well.
Pilot must find his sister's killer, and put an end to the madness that eats at him day after day.
WOW..."Raveling" is amazing. I can't believe this is the author's first novel. The story is creepy, the characters chilling, a totally compulsive read. It is not likely to find a better psychological thriller this year.
The book is written from Pilot's point of view and readers are kept guessing if he is telling the truth. The book plays mind games with the reader, making you believe something one minute, and then changing your mind the next.
Peter Moore Smith has written an original thriller that should immediately land on the bestseller list's.
Reader's be warned, once begun, you will not put the book down until you finish it.
A MUST read!

"Things fall apart, the center cannot hold." Yeats's words seem fitting for the slowly disintegrating Airie family and their son Pilot, a schizophrenic. Twenty years ago, Pilot's little sister, Fiona, disappeared. In the aftermath, the Airie family fell apart--"unraveled," Pilot observes. Old sins have long shadows, and Pilot both welcomes and fears the darkness those shadows offer. His memories of Fiona's disappearance haunt him, but they are also an anchor to a past that seems more authentic than the present.
