Synopsis
on back cover:
Deep
within a Colorado cave, a teen drifter discovers an arrowhead shaped
crystal harboring an evil sentience. Acting as the crystal's host,
the boy is endowed with psychic powers and extreme rage. He embarks
on a cross country mission, eager to exact revenge for crimes
committed more than a century ago; able to track his intended victims
through a biological conduit. Caitlin Diggs became the FBI s top
agent by being brazen and unconventional, but her experience and
training had not prepared her for this new enemy, a murderous
teenager whose twisted union with a crystal has spawned a biological
internet threatening all of humanity. A trail of bodies leads Agent
Diggs to a terrible conclusion; to halt the murders, she must take
control of the crystal herself. But Diggs is not herself. Plagued by
nightmares of her partner and lover s murder, she has revenge issues
of her own. Can she come to terms with her vengeful lust and stop the
killer? Or will she be lured into the crystal's blood web?
Review:
The
author, Gary Starta,
has uniquely envisioned a fantastic Paranormal-Thriller series. I
have yet to come across a story quite like this, until now. The
aspect of merging Native American history and modern day times, with
a twist of the paranormal and
a psychotic serial killer on the loose, is spectacular. The story
within is just as enticing to me as the tile, Blood
Web (which
I love). The
author has successfully portrayed realistic characters, an amazing
plot, and in-depth descriptions ( although somewhat long winded, but
necessary to the story-line for a series ). All-in-all I will
definitely recommend this book to other readers. Well done, Gary
Starta. Thank you for an incredible story. Note: There were some
typo's but nothing too serious for the reader to become confused.
