Sebastian Siman the deadliest serial killer in history. Evan's Book takes you on a haunting journey of fear, love, courage, and the will to survive.
In the evolution of Jade Walker from a simple librarian to the ultimate killing machine, author Dan FitzPatrick takes us on an adventure in Vision: Evan’s Book where an unlikely hero discovers he is the only person who can stop the deadliest serial killer the world has ever known. This genre-bending thriller leaves no elemental stone unturned with its blend of nail-biting suspense, heart-pounding action, sci-fi mystique, and romantic intrigue. What I thought was especially clever was the thoughtful structure of the novel—how the author revolved us around the story in three hundred sixty degrees, often jumping through time to reveal more of the back-story, leaving us fully immersed under the many layers that make up Vision. FitzPatrick’s page-turning cliffhangers are inspired and unforgiving, but none are as merciless as the last, which will launch us into the sequel, Vision II: The Black Skull, hopefully poised to answer the questions that left us dangling on the edges of our seats. Dark, compelling, and thoroughly entertaining, five stars for FitzPatrick’s debut novel.
