Josh Pahigian's 'Strangers on the Beach' among the Maine Edge's best of the year

Strangers on the Beach, a mystery novel by Josh Pahigian, M.F.A., adjunct professor in the UNE Department of English, was listed as one of the best reads of 2012 by the Maine Edge.

"Pahigian has constructed a complex thriller, filled with engaging and eccentric characters. The story – set in Old Orchard Beach - is populated by fully-realized characters, people whose motivations never feel anything but honest.... A great read."

The book was also reviewed in Kennebec Journal on Jan. 3, 2013 and The Bangor Daily News on Jan. 7th.
