"Mr. Hollins does a wonderful job in creating a novel that draws you in from the very beginning, while keeping your attention to the very end. I would highly recommend this book to those that love a good mystery."
C.D. Grant for Hot or Not Books
"A fast moving and exciting mystery! I was hooked from the beginning. The main characters stood out and I wanted to give a piece of my mind to half the people in the small town of the Mississippi Delta! This was a very well written story that doesn't drag in the least. I am impressed with Mr. Hollin's overall theme of the fight for good over demonic power fighting with modern societal values distinct in each character. It really was one hell of a ride!"
The RAWSISTAZ Review
Timothy Hollins has woven an intricate tale of greed, envy and just plain wickedness as the detective searches for answers from people who don't want to cooperate. There are many dead ends and twists as she fumbles her way through the frightened, as well as scary, people. Strange phenomenon help create the mystery and intrigue, along with the every day, normal occurrences. The characters are developed and come to life as they play out this terrible charade. In addition, to add a bit of spice, a love triangle is going on that may hinder the investigation. It is a frightening, yet mysterious one. I would recommend it even to those who may not think they like the paranormal.
