Coram House By Bailey Seybolt Sharp Objects meets I Have Some Questions for You in this haunting novel—inspired by a true story—about a crime writer who risks everything as she investigates the mystery of two deaths, decades apart, at a crumbling Vermont orphanage. On a blistering summer day in 1968, nine-year-old Tommy vanishes without a trace from Coram House, an orphanage on the shores of Lake Champlain. Some say a nun drowned him, others say he ran away. Or maybe he never existed.
Het weeshuis
Op een hete zomerdag in 1968 verdwijnt de 9-jarige Tommy spoorloos uit het door nonnen gerunde weeshuis Coram House. 50 jaar later is zijn verdwijning nog steeds niet opgelost. Als truecrime-auteur Alex Kelley gevraagd wordt een boek te schrijven over het weeshuis – en de misstanden die zich daar afspeelden – grijpt ze die kans met beide handen aan. Dan wordt het lichaam van een dode vrouw gevonden. Alex vermoedt dat de sleutel in deze zaak ligt bij het mysterie rondom Tommy.

I moved to a tiny Vermont city on Lake Champlain in late 2018.

10 Mysteries Set in the Bleak Midwinter
In Scots, there are separate words for fine driving snow (snaw-pouther) and small flakes (spitters)—plus about 400 other snow-related terms. Alas, English isn’t nearly so rich. And yet there is something about the winter landscape that begs to be written about. The crackle of ice underfoot. The calls of crows that mass at sunset. A setting so bleak and yet full of beauty practically begs for mystery. Article continues after advertisement If it’s not clear by now, I’m a sucker for setting.
