14 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story is a captivating blend of a police procedural and artistic elements, featuring three interconnected murders accompanied by detailed sketches of the victims, which enhance the mystery and intrigue. The narrative is enriched by interesting characters, particularly the main character's intuitive nature and his grandmother's spiritual practices, while the interplay of text and images adds depth to the storytelling. Despite some far-fetched elements, the well-crafted plot keeps readers engaged with action-packed twists and a compelling relationship between the protagonists.

“There are clues dropped throughout the story, providing ample opportunities for the reader to guess who the murderer may be, which adds to the intrigue.”
“The basic storyline involves three seemingly unrelated murders, with very good sketches of the victims in their death pose found at each crime scene, but obviously drawn prior to their murder.”
“The interplay of text and images gives added dimension to the story, as does the relationship that grows between Nate and Terri.”
“The black magic aspect was a little far-fetched at first, but the story is written so well that the reader ends up buying into it anyway.”
