Why read it?

1 author picked Agony Hill as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book is full of suspense with a very logical wrap-up. The main character is a Boston cop in small-town Vermont, and since I moved to Vermont from the West only five years ago, I could relate to his feelings of confusion and displacement. Two fires, a victim, a touch of romance, a touch of American history, and mysterious government officials up to who-knows-what. Very enjoyable read.
