North Point

About the Book

Life in the sleepy little town of North Point has changed dramatically almost over night. Where once the major crimes committed were ditching school, chicken stealing, and a fight or two down at the local bar and grille, murder, rape, and kidnapping have taken their place. And even that is not the worst of the town’s problems. Mother Nature is about to render her own rendition of utter chaos. While Sheriff Mc Cellen and his deputy Jim Henery can’t do much against nature’s attempt to destroy them and the town, they can and do fight back against the human element. Trouble is, not everyone in the town is, strickly speaking, a human. Charles K. Carpenter has written several novels which have delighted us, alarmed us, and caused us to think outside our usual line of thought. Giving us such Comic Crime novels as The Turn Tail Woodpecker and The Gold Medallion, he has made us smile. Giving us Equanimity Hall, The Road Stalker, The Red Convertible, and The Scribe, he has frightened us. Giving us North Point, he has tugged at our heartstrings and made us realize there is more going on in life than we ever suspected. Charles and his family live in the rural west where dusty trails beckon, green fields abound, and planes, trains, and big trucks still rule the air, roads, and rails.
