Grotesque

Rate this book
When an assault on a rooftop goes horribly wrong, an ancient incantation is broken, conjuring a stone monster back to flesh. The grotesque, formerly a decorative demonic statue of gothic architecture, returns to the world of man after years of slumber knowing one it must kill and kill again in order to stay as flesh and survive.

As the spate of brutal murders unfolds, homicide detectives are left baffled by the macabre crime scenes they wake to each morning. Detective Slattery believes they are the work of a bloodthirsty vigilante, but forensic investigator Nicole Li believes there is more to it.

Then comes a the witness testimony they needed. The grotesque is real. When Detective Slattery openly mocks the claims, it is up to Nicole to prove the case. But proving it, and stopping the beast itself, can only happen if she chooses to embrace those her betrayed her the most...

Ok read

This was just an ok read for me. I think the story was fine and all, just had a hard time getting into it. I would recommend to others. Again, I think it was just that the story didn't connect well with me.

Great

A great horror read. Romance, terror, and a dash of human terribleness thrown in. The writing is smooth, although there is some editing goofs. Its not enough to throw you out of the mood. It adds to the discourse. Just a really enjoyable read.
