Gabriel Blackstone is a gifted thief.
He and his partner hack in to computers and steal secrets for which
they are well paid. But Gabriel has another talent. He has the
ability to be a “remote viewer.” This talent allows him to see
into other people's minds. He gave up on this talent after a bad
trip, but now his ex-girlfriend, Frankie, asks him to use his talent
to find her husband's son.
Reluctantly, Gabriel takes on the
quest. When he finally agrees, he meets two sisters, Minnaloushe and
Morrrighan Monk. The sisters function as solar witches and enmesh
Gabriel in their world. He knows one of the them killed Frankie's
stepson, but he's fascinated by the women. Personal desire takes over
and Gabriel finds himself in a situation from which he will be lucky
to survive.
If you enjoy paranormal novels, you'll
enjoy this one. The author builds a compelling world and backs it up
with facts about remote viewing, alchemy and memory palaces. I found
the plot interesting and the characters well developed. Figuring out
who killed Frankie's son is rather trivial, although the author tries
to hide the identity with red herrings.
The blend of technology with ancient
arts is fascinating and the book is
atmospheric. I recommend it
if you enjoy paranormal adventure with a background of mystery.
I reviewed this book for Net Galley.
