The timelines also connect the two times together fairly neatly. Shortly after arriving they begin to notice small things, often wondering if it isn’t their imagination getting the best of them, but they soon realize they are not alone out there as more and more things happen, and the things begin to get worse. The then takes you through events that lead up to the cause of the mysterious disappearance of the entire village and the chapters are interspaced throughout the Now chapters that deal with a film documentary crew who has come to make a film about the disappearance. The Lost Village is fast-paced, bouncing between two time periods, Then ( 1959 ) and Now. What must people's life be like to grasp so heavily at the words of these people? Ok sorry off point…back to the story… Maybe it is easier to fall prey to these people than I realize, people certainly “ drink the Kool-Aid “ so to speak…The Salem Witch Trials, Jim Jones, Waco, you could even count in Hitler and Manson, however, they were less religious-based. I have questioned that so many times in my life, and here again with this book I found myself questioning it, especially as this book unfolds and you are beginning to understand what has actually happened in 1959. The horror is that people fall prey to religion and religious leaders. I spent the majority of my time reading The Lost Village in the dark, alone.
I am a big scary cat, I have trouble reading Riley Sager books, they creep me out, I can only read them during the day. Also, this book says it is a thriller/horror book.
