This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.
This is the third book of a trilogy of thrillers set in San Francisco written by Jonathan Moore. I received an audio copy for a honest review. I decided to listen to the first two books on audio too and I would have to say that I really do enjoy Jonathan's writing. His first book was a psychological thriller entitled The Poison Artist. The second book was a police procedural entitled The Dark Room and this one is a science fiction/dystopian story. Science fiction and dystopian are not my usual genre but I thought this one to be a very unique read.
Inspector Ross Carver and his partner, Jenner, are at a crime scene and the dead man is covered by an unknown substance that is eating through his skin. Carver is then placed in a decontamination trailer, forced to drink a liquid that sends him into seizures and then drugged unconscious. He wakes up a few days later and finds his neighbor, Mia, reading aloud to him and he can't remember what happened to him.
I found this book to be exquisitely plotted and very entertaining. The characters are very interesting too. You will have to read this book and find out all the creepy and scary things that happened to Carver and his partner, Jenner. I thought the reader, James Patrick Cronin, did an excellent job too. He has a very pleasant voice which held my attention. I will definitely seek out more books by Jonathan Moore and I would highly recommend this book to those who love mystery books with a little bit of romance too.
I would like to thank the publisher for sending me an audio book for an honest review.
