At its core, it's a mystery, and a perfectly paced, well-plotted one at that. But it's also a beautifully lyrical coming-of-age story that depicts the socioeconomic divide of small beach town life, with all the 1980s flavor to go with it. Laskowski is a truly gifted storyteller with that 'X-factor' you look for--but rarely find--in a debut author. Spectacular."<br /><strong>--JENNIFER HILLIER, author of <em>Jar of Hearts</em></strong> <p/>"With evocative prose, <em>One Night Gone </em>feels like a journey through a sinister hall of mirrors, bringing to life the off-season menace of a beachfront refuge for the wealthy, still haunted by the disappearance of a teenaged girl thirty years ago."<br /><strong>--HALLIE EPHRON, <em> New York Times </em>bestselling author of <em>Careful What You Wish For</em></strong>
