PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Horton easily conjures up creeps in this modern-day horror novel that will be of particular interest to fans of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child s popular Pendergast series. Kyle Andrews works as a victim specialist for the FBI in Seattle, serving as a liaison to bereaved families and providing grief counseling. Andrews gets a chance to prove himself worthy of becoming an actual special agent when he s dispatched to Montana to assist with the investigation of multiple murders. Before long, evidence emerges that the killer is a what rather than a who. Despite some clich d elements, Horton maintains suspense, even as he cuts from the mayhem in the mountains to the mysterious activity of a government-sanctioned assassin. The novel s ending may disappoint some readers, but the author s imagination and effective prose serve him well throughout.
