Format:Hardcover
Although intended for my teenage brother and sister, I ended up reading it before they had a chance to snatch it from me. The cover itself intrigued me (what with its ghoulish neon green) and prompted me to explore the title "Veritas." Having grown up in a Christian background, I knew that "Veritas" would somehow be connected to Christianity, and, true enough, the book did revolve around that theme.
It was a fun read...very much like those suspense and detective stories I'd grown up with, but intertwined in the plot is the family's quest for The Truth, accompanied by the love they had manifested to those around them. That's what I liked about the book...this "human" side to it. And I want to give Peretti credit for this.
However, realistically, the characters' lives and occupations are almost impossible to realize. Sort of like the Bobbsey Twins, except the older twins (Bob and Nan) become Nate and Sarah Springfield.
But, hey, in fiction, anything goes! It's indeed a book you'd want to let pre-teens and teenagers read, and, for that matter, something they'd enjoy doing! Especially since reading is not exactly high on the list of activities of kids these days.

The Springfield family are the main characters in this absoulutly amazing book by Frank Peretti. The family works as a team undercover to discover the truth beneath the facts. In Hangman's Curse the family work to discover the cause of a certain ilness that is working it's way through the school. Not only do they discover the cause and its cure but also the horrific dangers of withcraft and most importantly how important people of all shapes and sizes are.This is a gripping book that will keep your interest to the very last full stop.

Better read than seen. Typical Frank Paeretti book. Sets the scene then follows the characters and storyline well with twists and unexpected moves. Final outcome Good always wins but there are some twists on the journey
