AKA: Book One in the Jake Helman Files
Author: Gregory Lamberson
Premise:
A detective on the hunt for a serial killer, gets into a shoot out with two thugs. He refuses to take a drug test and walks away from the police. The next day he is offered a job as Head of Security for a recluse billionaire operating a genetic research company. Soon he finds the recluse is stealing souls and creating lethal bioweapons. And to make matters worse a powerful demon is trying to get at the recluse.
My Take:
This is an amazing tale. It combines so many horror, pulpy crime fiction, and sci fi elements together in a delicious gory stew. The hero is very flawed but very likeable. He goes through hell and back to get redemption. Every detail in the book in linked to each other which make the pieces fall together personally. Highly recommeded reading and I am definitly moving forward in the series.

Proud to admit that I am a horror junkie. However, my definition of what falls under the realm of horror entertainment is fairly wide. Horror is an emotion experienced differently by individuals. These are short reviews of the movies, television series, novels, comics, albums, and any thing else which crosses my path if I feel like falls into the wide world of horror entertainment.
