As a youth, Trevor Black unleashed spiritual
forces he couldn’t comprehend. Years later, Trevor is a high-flying criminal
defense lawyer in New York City, with a six-figure Aston Martin and a trophy
wife. But in an extraordinary turn of events, he receives a burdensome gift:
the ability to perceive the invisible. And the dark forces he now sees are all
gunning for him.
When one of Trevor’s hometown friends is murdered, the MO is eerily similar to a shocking trail of murders that have already crossed the lawyer’s path. So Trevor must return home to find the killer. . . and face not only his own personal demons, but supernatural ones as well.

I enjoy a good
mystery and I enjoy reading a great suspense novel, but put a piece of
speculative fiction in front of me and I’ll devour the book. This is one of those that doesn’t let you
down.
Writing a
story that breaks the veil between this world and the spiritual realm is not an
easy task. Craig Parshall has done this
with the first book in his Trevor Black series.
I’m not a big fan of stories that use a lot of memories to tell a story,
but you truly need those memories of Trevor’s as a kid to get the whole depth
of this story. Could there be more back
story to the characters and more time spent fleshing them out? Sure, but I feel Mr. Parshall gave me just
enough of the story to still leave some to my imagination. The story is wrapped up so it’s going to be
interesting to see where the next book in this series takes us.
Is this a
"Guys Book"? For me, this is
the ultimate type of a guy’s book. I
love the supernatural storyline, the battle between the spirits and demons
always reminds me just what kind of world we live in. It also reminds me that He saved me and protects
me from the dark realm.
