Description

I know you…

The thought stirs a memory. A woman lies dead in her hallway. But it’s the way she was murdered that disturbs Jack Stone, a detective with New Hampshire’s Major Crime Unit. It’s familiar. He doesn’t know why. But when he reads the message on the wall of the murder house, he knows his family is in danger. He has seen it before: Give It Back.

As he attempts to unravel the conspiracy against him and discover why The Seven Judges have targeted him, Jack is drawn deeper into a battle for his daughter and a powerful enemy determined to take everything from him.

I loved American Homemaker so I jumped at the chance to read this one! I'm not even sure how to describe it. Picture a gigantic jigsaw puzzle that even after the last piece is in place, you still look at it and say, "Wait? What???" It's a little like Dirty Harry meets Stephen King. Ok, forget the analogies. Just be prepared for literally anything to happen in this novel! Protagonist Jack Stone is called to a gruesome family murder that seems all too familiar to him as his family was killed and his younger brother abducted years ago. Of course this haunts him as he has his own demons with whom he must battle. Add to the mix his second wife and daughter, his friend and rogue detective, the FBI, the local thugs and drug dealers, and the creepy Seven (who are a mix of mythology and revenge-seeking men) who keep writing GIVE IT BACK at the crime scenes. There is a great deal of violence, blood, and gore, so many mysteries that your head will spin, and surprises on every page. And yet, I loved it! It is unlike any other murder mystery you've ever read (and I read A LOT)! And there'd better be a sequel Mr. Kaine because I still have lots of questions!!

It's hard in the horror genre to find a truly unique premise, nevertheless a tale so well-written with believable characters that just naturally inspire empathy. I loved this book, dark as it was. It definitely won't be the last Kaine novel I read!

*Thanks to both the publisher and the author for allowing me to read an ARC of this book free of charge, in exchange only for an honest review."

The woman is killed along with her children. Jack Stone, a detective with the Major Crime Unit is really bothered by the way the woman was killed. There's something familiar about this crime.

When he sees the message on the wall, he knows that he and his family is in danger. He has seen that message before.....

Jack's past has come hurtling to the forefront and smacked him right in the face.

Who or What are The Seven? What do they want ... and Why?

This is the first I've read of this author and I'm not quite sure how to put my thoughts in order. It is a crime fiction with elements of something paranormal. Several times I had to go back and re-read a paragraph or two.. I wanted to make sure I knew what I was reading. There's lots of action, a real page turner. The well paced suspense keeps rocketing until the very end. Warning --- it ends in what I would call a cliff hanger ... although I can find no information on whether it's 'the' ending or if the reader can expect something in the future to follow.

Many thanks to the author / Netgalley for the digital copy of this thriller. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

I really enjoyed this book. Jack was by no means a by the rules cop, but I really liked his character. It was a good, original story. I would put it more as a thriller with supernatural/paranormal elements rather than full on horror, but would still recommend it to horror fans too.
The ending was great and it kept me guessing right until the last page.
I would read more of Kaine's work based on this.
