Summary: David Morell is a master!
Comment: I've read every book David Morrell has written and Long Lost is his best in years. The last few books he's written have been good books, but the heroes are almost superhuman. Yes, Morrell did create Rambo, but David Morrell's Rambo was a real, flawed person, not the perfect hero Stallone turned him into. With 'Long Lost' Morrell returns to the kind of human story he told in 'First Blood'. It's a fairly simple story of a boy, Petey Denning, who disappears when he is nine years old, devastating his parents and older brother. Years later his parents are dead and his brother Brad is married and successful. Petey returns to Brad's life and kidnaps his family. The story takes off from there as Brad chases his family across the country trying to save them from his brother. The characters are very real, and the situations all make sense.
Although, the way Brad tracks his brother is a little hard to believe. The ending rings very true to life. It's not exactly a happy ending. This book is one incredible book!

Summary: Morrell is One of the Masters
Comment: Brad Dennings is a successful architect with a beautiful wife and a son he loves very much. He has a nice life, but a horrible day from his past turns it all around. Twenty five years earlier, when he was thirteen, he got tired of his nine-year-old younger brother Petey tagging after him, so he sent him home, but Petey never made it. It looked like a kidnapping, because they found his bike and baseball glove. Brad, carries the guilt with him, but buries it over time.
A quarter century later a stranger shows up claiming to be Petey. Then Petey disappears again, but this time he takes Brad's wife and son with him.
Once again David Morrell has written a novel that will have you on the edge of your seat as you follow along with Brad as he tries to get his stolen family back. When it comes to writing a thriller, Morrell is one of the masters.

Summary: Morrell is losing his edge
Comment: David Morrell has long been on my "Must Buy" list of authors. Up until his most recent efforts, I have automatically purchased his books as they were released and waited anxiously for the next.
Unfortunately Long Lost is the latest in a string of increasingly depressing novels that I have found a difficult time completing, let alone enjoying.
