The Voodoo Case

by Terry Persun

A missing person, an evil entity, and New Orleans come together in this suspense filled thriller.

Is the government involved in yet another strange paranormal case? The shaman detective, Dan Johnston, and his son Jason, are asked to find Sam Bennett, who investigates paranormal activities for the government. But the government didn’t call the detectives. Sam’s wife, Ann, contacted them. For some reason, she doesn’t want anyone else involved, which puts Dan on alert.

When Dan and Jason get to New Orleans—the last place Sam was working—they find a peculiar situation already underway. Ann may not be exactly who she says she is. And an old psychic tries to protect her granddaughter from Dan and Jason, as well as Ann. Then the curator from the Voodoo Museum is murdered, the police show up, and Dan and Jason are forced to do their shaman work in the worst place possible—Jail.

Reviews

[Cheryl · Rating 5 out of 5]

Father and son, Dan and Jason Johnston, are tasked with what should be an easy missing spouse case when all hell breaks loose in the form of an entity. Louisiana is quite renowned for its voodoo practitioners, and when they join forces with shamanism, it’s a battle of good over evil. Notebooks in hand, they follow the signs that lead them on their journeys, meeting totem animals sent to guide and save. But things are not always what they seem to be and decisions must be made. Some can be deadly.

I've really enjoyed this series, with only one serious complaint..... they all desperately need a good proof reader. The wrong homonym, misplaced quotation marks... I know I'm OCD about things like that, but several times these little errors just pulled me right out of the flow.

Other than that, I am really enjoying the character development, and I highly enjoy the novel twist on "paranormal detective" stories. I'm looking forward to reading his science fiction stories next!
