We are taken on a dark and twisty journey has we follow Jake who is drawn into an investigation when a child disappears. I haven't read any this author's other books but from other reviews I see that some of the characters in this new series have been taken from some of the authors other books from other series. Be aware that this is a fast paced, terrifying story that will either have you on the edge of your seat or have you running away in terror. Markin has introduced an element of horror so thick you can almost taste it. If this is not your "thing" then I wouldn’t recommend this to you, but if you enjoy being scared...go for it. I gave the book 4- stars because it was almost too much for me who regularly reads this type of books. (

OH. MY. GOD. A word of warning, this novel contains violence so much to make you cry and I had to skip parts to keep my sanity, BUT I LOVED IT! In Blue Falls, Maine, the town is held hostage by a depraved and bitter old man who had the sheriff under his thumb and locals afraid to step on his toes for fear of being thrown in the killing pit and never returning! I was disgusted with the sheriff's dark secret and the people who would not stand up to the man and his bullies. I liked that Jake Pettman, an exiled detective is a broken man who could not return to his home, a continent away unless he wanted to die, but in Blue Falls he learned what his ancestors did that ran them out of town! THE NOVEL IS VERY GOOD IF READERS CAN STOMACH THE VIOLENCE!! (
