Blaine Daigle can WRITE, y'all. I read A Dark Roux, and really loved it. I already knew that that he has the ability to really set a scene, and the setting is almost like another character in the novel. In this case, it's the Bering Sea, which mirrors the cold and bleakness of the narrative. Because the main character has amnesia, as the story unfolds we're learning right along with him, and I feel like it might be best to go in not knowing much at all. I wasn't sure how everything was going to wrap up, but the unique ending was very satisfying. 4.75 stars
