Synopsis

Ever come across a situation that simply wasn't right—where someone was getting the dirty end of the stick and you wished you could make things right but didn't know how? Fourteen-year-old Jack knows how. Or rather he's learning how. He's discovering that he has a knack for fixing things. Not bikes or toys or appliances—situations . . .

It all starts when Jack and his best friends, Weezy and Eddie, discover a rotting corpse—the victim of ritual murder—in the fabled New Jersey Pine Barrens. Beside the body is an ancient artifact carved with strange designs. What is its secret? What is the secret of the corpse? What other mysteries hide in the dark, timeless Pine Barrens? And who doesn't want them revealed?

Jack's town, the surrounding Barrens, his friends, even Jack himself . . . they all have . . . Secret Histories.

4.5 Stars The Repairman Jack series continues to be one of my favorite guilty pleasures. Wilson has created a hero in Jack that is simply awesome. The series is mostly action and thriller with a tiny albeit major supernatural line at it's heart. Gateways is a fun edition to the series as we get some......more

There is one nit-picky detail that's been bugging me in the last few books. Jack is wanting to become a citizen before his kid is born. Fine. But he needs a social security number to do so. He claims he doesn't have one, but wouldn't his parents have gotten him one? I had my soc card when I was ten.......more
