The final novel of the Sunset Kings trilogy gave closure to the Hoffman family in such a way that I can imagine the Hoffman Family Farm growing and thriving for generations to come.

Criminal Liaisons became the hardest to write of the trilogy. The first two Sunset Kings and War at Home focused on my father's generation which I observed for 60 years. Characters in this novel become more like my generation, which I am still observing.

Good writing and great storytelling are two prongs on the same fork. While they are complementary skills, they could exist independently of each other.

Experience and practice shape great writing. On the other hand, talented storytellers predate the existence of the written word and tend to be born with that skill.

This novel shows Steven Cain owns an embarrassment of riches concerning both traits. A lifetime of writing has endowed Mr. Cain with an enviable mastery of the craft, whereas nature seems to have bestowed the ancient and magical gift of storytelling. With consummate skill, the reader is drawn in gently at first. However, as the author seamlessly adjusts his prose style to fit both the ongoing narrative and the developing plot, the reader is enveloped in a lasting feeling of suspense that commands attention right up to the last page.

Steven Cain, the storyteller, creates a fascinating array of characters as Steven Cain the writer segues from spare, tightly crafted prose to lush imagery while maintaining a controlled momentum that carries us along and keeps us engaged. Like all memorable books, this one left me vastly entertained and a little wiser in the ways of the world.

What happens when you mix beautiful rural Indiana with a twenty-something smart guy, a sweetheart, and a mysterious car wreck? "The Accident in Larson" is a great story complicated by local and extraterrestrial forces. I loved the twists and turns. Thanks for the entertaining read!
