Another superb story. Ben and Meena find another body. There aren’t too many clues. The two of them won’t fail in finding the truth. Loved it.

For the second book in the DSA series, I was thoroughly enjoyed.

The story with Riley continues and we start to get a glimpse at the real people in play. We also get to see the story from many different perspectives, which normally can be really confusing to follow, but these books are written well so that you aren't confused.

Suffice to say, I will be continuing this series until the end. If you have read the first book and are wondering if you should continue with the series, then this review is for you!

The promise of the first novel comes through in the second - this is a brilliant episode, the banter between the agents is so polished that it shines, and there's a fair amount of action this time around. We get dark secrets, surprise twists, and more backstory to Lincoln, and it all ends somewhat bittersweetly. If I have one criticism, it's that I wish the episode's villain hadn't been spoiled early on, would have been more fun to guess.

Allow a day for this PG paranormal procedural with ties to The Clearing as Ben, Morgan, and Zac head to Chicago, and Lincoln heads to Lexington. I had an ARC via Booksprout; this voluntary review is my own opinion.

This series and author keep getting better and better. Ben Riley is an adorable mess. The interactions between the characters is hilarious and the writing is fast paced and drives home vivid visuals of flames and car scenes. Love this series

This series is getting deep into the "conspiracy" action, and I don't know whether that's really my thing. 🤷‍♀️ I prefer the supernatural investigation side. Anywho, I'll read the next in the series before I decide whether I want to complete the rest of the first season.

This goes to mark off my "Books Longest On Kindle" Goals list.

This is a fabulous book that is excellently-written and a very compelling read. The characters, Ben and Morgan are bought to life wonderfully and realistically. The story is action-packed and contains twists that keep you guessing until the end.

A "Promethean" is someone who can control fire. Ben and crew are still chasing down the aftermath of the previous book. and it leads to a burnt body, just the body not the office round it.
Be ready for more twists and turns in this latest book.

Very good story. It can be frustrating when everyone is out to get you or screw up your investigation. Our try to kill you. Very exciting story and it sounds very much like our government too. I received a complimentary review copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving a honest review.

This is the second book in the DSA series. If you like X Files and supernatural mysteries, you will love this series, and this book in particular.

I received this book from the author, and this is my unbiased review.

So book two in the DSA series and the action continues. Twists and turns all the way to an ending you don’t see coming. I cannot wait for book three. Highly recommended.
