| Plot Summary of Eye Contact |
|---|
""Eye Contact" is a thoroughly involved novel set in the Midwest. Journalist Mark Manning investigates the mysterious goings-on of a fundamentalist religious group and its connection with his fellow employees at a fictional Chicago newspaper. Utilizing contemporary wiles about sexuality and believable settings and use of technology, Craft has fashioned a good old-fashioned thriller that is truly a page-turner with great characters and plot development. This is an update of an earlier review that erroneously was given to Craft's later work "Body Language" which will be correctly reviewed."
