Review:
Like Provincetown itself, THE FISHER BOY (Poisoned Pen, $24.95), a first novel by Stephen Anable set in this resort town on Cape Cod, is gaudy and gay a and way over the top. Itas not enough that the place has been invaded by a militaristic evangelical sect. The streets are also crawling with menacing children from a cult that grows amazing fruit and vegetables and models itself on ancient Nordic culture....Anable has given his earnest sleuth a genuine sense of wonder at the beauty of the Cape and a rare ability to hold conversations with sad, wounded people. His is a voice worth hearing again. -- Marilyn Stasio, New York Times, May 18 2008
