OLDER FICTION
Lake, Nick

In Darkness

(2) YA Beneath the rubble of the recent Haiti earthquake lies a teenage boy, waiting to be rescued. He has had a bleak and violent life but draws strength from the story of the revolutionary Toussaint L'Ouverture, whose presence seems to visit him. Leisurely pacing allows Lake to develop his unforgettable characters and harrowing settings and lay the foundation for his timely and relevant themes.
