 I was thrilled to receive an ARC of her latest, Looking Glass Sound - thank you Tor Nightfire!
 This is my fourth Ward read, and I was originally hooked with The House On Needless Street. She has the flair for taking straightforward-sounding stories and making them entirely unique and unpredictable.
 Main character Wilder Harlow spends his summers at a seaside cottage in Maine, with friends Nat and Harper. Idyllic summer days are muted by killings in the area by the Dagger Man.
 Looking Glass Sound is told in multiple viewpoints and timeframes, from Wilder, Sky Montague, and Pearl. There's metafiction, autofiction, blurring and layering of events and reveals - it all works in tandem with gorgeous and dark writing.
 As with her other books, it needs to be experienced. Recommended!
 For release on Aug. 8.
