All the Colors of the Dark is a soaring thriller and epic love story that blends suspense with profound heart.
1975: America is shifting. The Vietnam War is ending, Muhammad Ali is fighting Joe Frazier, and in the small town of Monta Clare, Missouri, young girls are vanishing. When a local boy named Patch saves the daughter of a wealthy family from a brutal attack, he becomes an unlikely hero—yet leaves heartbreak in his wake.
Equal parts missing-person mystery, serial killer thriller, and sweeping generational love story, Whitaker’s latest has been hailed as “a must-read novel” (Gillian Flynn), “absolutely mesmerizing” (Patricia Cornwell), and “profoundly emotional and powerful” (B.A. Paris).
