I scored this book 5/5
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This book tells the story of a middle-aged photographer whose life has gone down to the drain. Lance is on the fast road to self-destruction and his lifestyle is putting his home and life in danger. Unlikely as it seems, he is able to help the police in discovering the truth behind some murders.
I particularly liked how Lance’s wife continued to tell him off even after death.
I did not find anything about the book I did not like. In general, I love reading detectives and this one was no different.
I loved where Lance appeared to finally get his act together again.
I enjoyed the entire book.
I understand this is the first in a series of books by this author.
This book reminded me of a mixture between the common detectives with a hint of the paranormal mixed in.
In summary, I would recommend this book for the following readers:
Children No
Young Adult Yes
Adult Yes
If you like Mystery, detectives and paranormal books this book might be the book for you.
I look forward to reading more books by this author.
A Supernatural Thriller – Lance Underphal was devastated by his wife’s death. And now, the down-and-out freelance photographer can’t let her go. He wakes up plagued by premonitions. The double shooting of an Arizona real estate developer and his mistress/bookkeeper immerse Underphal in a world of psychic phenomena.
Dark, different, and based on real-life events, this genre-bending murder mystery will keep you guessing.
Looking for a new series of supernatural thrillers? Psychic novels of mystery and suspense? Perhaps a paranormal mystery? Or maybe those scary books for adults only? Regardless, the dark, disturbing novels by Indie Author, Michael Allan Scott, won’t disappoint.
An indie author/entrepreneur, Michael Allan Scott was born and raised at the edge of the high desert in Kingman, Arizona. He resides in Scottsdale with his wife, Cynthia and their rescue Doberman, Roxie.
