Dillon Savich and Lacey Sherlock have been involved in a lot of stange cases, but this time around, there is something more, can he really believe his own eyes. On the other coast, Savichs little sister Lily needs help, but when a complication in the case arises, he calls in college buddy Simon Russo who is an art expert. Two stories running side by side until the end. Both Dillon and Lily seem to have thier own demons to do battle with. I really enjoyed seeing such deep emotion from Dillon Savich. The character interaction is great as usual with Catherine Coulters FBI series. An all right read. There's no denying that Catherine Coulter can weave a story, bringing in every thread of detail. But some of the dialogue was awfully trite, and some scenes unbelievable. Worse, the biggest mystery in the book--the point that really drew me in-- was not explained by the end. What a disappointment. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

Tommy and Timmy Tuttle abduct and slaughter young boys in ritual ceremonies to satisfy the fiendish appetites of the mysterious entities they call Ghouls. But is Timmy really Tammy? Or is Tommy? Only their dimwitted cousin Marilyn Warluski knows for sure—and there’s not a moment to spare. Savich has tracked the Tuttles to an abandoned barn in rural Maryland, rescuing their latest victims in the nick of time. Timmy just turned into Tammy! No, that’s Tommy! But what are those miniature spinning cyclone-ghouls that Tammy/Timmy/Tommy seem to will into being? Savich shoots one and the rest disappear. Meanwhile, out in Hemlock Bay in northern California, Savich’s younger sister, Lily Frasier, is recovering from a car crash that nearly took her life. Her creepy doctor won’t give her painkillers because she tried to commit suicide several months ago after the death of her young daughter in a hit-and-run accident. But Lily thinks it wasn’t an accident—and she has a feeling that her ostensibly devoted husband Tennyson could be trying to kill her, aided by his tyrannical father Elcott Frasier. A helpful hypnotist clues her in: She’s right. Are the male Frasiers after the paintings her grandmother left to her, now worth millions? Or are they mere puppets for Olaf Jorgenson, octogenarian Swedish shipping zillionaire and art collector who once loved her grandmother? Savich introduces Lily to Simon Russo, sexy art broker, who gets to the bottom of the skullduggery while Savich gets back to chasing the Tuttles. Lily and Simon are kidnapped by a giant meathead named Alpo, escape the nefarious clutches of weird Olaf, and are menaced again by Tommy/Timmy/Tammy, now unmasked as a psychopathic illusionist with an unquenchable thirst for human blood.'
Review: This one is a bit far-fetched, but interesting. Same old romance. ( )
