Review: WHITETOOTH FALLS by Justin Joschko


5 Stars!

Magnificently  lyrical, a literary  crime narrative  which in its expanse, characterization, and metaphorical  imagery reminded me of Norman Mailer's  The Executioner's Song. WHITETOOTH FALLS peels away the veneer of tourism and peaceful living in Niagara Falls, Ontario and the Greater Toronto metropolitan region, exposing crime, lowlifes, and scams; but also an unbelievable, life-altering (and life-destroying) paranormal element, one which will wreak untold havoc. 

Read this as a superb crime thriller.  Read it as an incredibly  imaginative paranormal exploration.  Read it to pause and savour  its literate imagery. Read it.

--Also read for Canadian  Challenge 2019/2020.
