I finished reading this today and I thought I’d share. I’ve read another book by this author prior to this and that’s what drew me to this book. I enjoy a good horror book, plus, this one was a quick read. If you are interested in reading about monsters, then you may enjoy this book. However, this book isn’t for younger audiences and probably not for the faint of heart either.
Synopsis: John Persons is a private investigator with a distasteful job from an unlikely client. He’s been hired by a ten-year-old to kill the kid’s stepdad, McKinsey. The man in question is abusive, abrasive, and abominable.
He’s also a monster, which makes Persons the perfect thing to hunt him. Over the course of his ancient, arcane existence, he’s hunted gods and demons, and broken them in his teeth.
As Persons investigates the horrible McKinsey, he realizes that he carries something far darker. He’s infected with an alien presence, and he’s spreading that monstrosity far and wide. Luckily Persons is no stranger to the occult, being an ancient and magical intelligence himself. The question is whether the private dick can take down the abusive stepdad without releasing the holds on his own horrifying potential.
