Children of the Fog by Cheryl Kaye Tardif

Enjoyed this although was kept somewhat confused by the formatting!! How so? Well, reading it on my Kindle I keep an eye on what percentage of the book I've read, just as I would watch the page numbers in a real book. I was pleasently surprised and intrigued when what I thought would be the ending came at 25%. The book rolled on nicely with the plot thickening through a good a story before at 64%, what's this, oh it must be another false summit .... well, I've fallen for that before so this is not the end. Well, actually it was. The book finished at 64% and the rest of it was part of the author's next book to get us drawn in! (It did not work with me as I have started something new!!). This is the story of a lady who has a criminal and a womaniser as a husband and whose sole joy in life is her 6 year old boy ...... until he is abducted and apparently killed by "The Fog". A man steals into homes like mist and who takes two children, a girl and boy, every spring. In this case our heroin comes into her son's room just as The Fog is taking the boy and she is warned that if she says she has seen the abductor the child will be returned in "little bloody pieces". She sketches a picture which she hides but her husband finds it and gives it to the police. The Fog calls her later and tells her that if she says nothing more then she can come and get her son but as she approaches the car where she thinks he is tied up she stumbles over a trip wire and the automobile explodes, killing him. She leaves town ............... looking for somewhere to go and finish the children's book she is writing for her son before ending it all but led by "signs" from conversations with her son in her head she is led to a place where, with the help of dead children, she solves the mystery and restores her happiness. Very good book.
