Tim Bowler lays out an intriguing mystery.  He yanks you into the story with the very first words and compels the reader to continue into the story as Dusty herself is pulled into the mystery of "The Boy" and the brightness.  Although the tale is interesting, Bowler's supporting characters are sometimes unbelievable, particularly Dusty's parents who seem to have had a role reversal with her.  One word of caution for readers who like neat conclusions: although Dusty does learn the fate of her missing brother, she does not uncover any information about "The Boy" or the greater mystery of the brightness that seems to take her over at times.  What is going on with that?

This was my first book by Mr. Swartwood, and I will probably read more.  This is a fast-paced mystery that keeps you guessing until the end.  A book with a twist is always a plus in my book.  Would you have made the same choices as she did?  Read it and see.

"Murder Under the Bridge" is a unique mystery filled with intriguing twists and turns. The strong female characters are believable and interesting. Raphael's vivid detailed descriptions helped me learn about the labyrinth-like levels of government and dangerous politics of the Palestine-Israeli conflict. I am now compelled to investigate them further.
