Review #525: The Motion of Puppets by Keith Donohue



My rating: 3 of 5 stars


"I could never be on stage on my own. But puppets can say things that humans can't say."

----Nina Conti



Keith Donohue, an American best-selling novelist, spins a thoroughly engrossing part-horror-part-mystery book, The Motion of Puppets where the author weaves a slightly gripping tale about a newly married couple's dilemma when the wife goes missing and surprisingly she turns into a puppet, leaving the husband on a trail through the city's darkest alleys to the trending ones, until his belief comes true about his wife.
