Haven operative Luther Brinkman with FBI/SCU Callie Davis are trying to locate an escaped felon, their counterparts FBI/SCU Hollis Templeton and Reese DeMarco are practicing Hollis’ medium skills while trying to locate a paranormal anomaly. This second book of the Haven trilogy is steeped in psychics of many callings and a mystery that looms dark on the horizon. A great mix of mystery, murder and the paranormal. Hostageby Kay Hooper Book 2 in the Haven series 3.5 ★'s The series features FBI agents from the Special Crimes Unit and private investigators from the Haven agency who are called in on investigations of the worst, most grisly, most mysterious crimes. These agents all have something in common - psychic talents ranging from telepathy to clairvoyance to almost anything else you can imagine (think Criminal Minds with psychics). Haven operative Luther Brinkman has been sent into the wilderness of the Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee to locate escaped felon Cole Jacoby, a mentally unstable bank robber. Supposedly, Jacoby hid more than ten million dollars from his last heist before he was captured and rather mysteriously escaped federal custody. And once Brinkman finds Jacoby, the agent is left severely wounded with no way to convey his location to Haven. Callie Davis, an agent with the FBI’s Special Crimes Unit, has been in the area for some time, due to the foresight of her boss and unit chief, Noah Bishop. But when she finds the wounded Brinkman, her rescue mission turns into a deadly game of cat and mouse. What neither Luther nor Callie know is that their quarry is far more than an escaped bank robber. And that in hunting him, they will find themselves being hunted by him, and will discover him to be the worst monster either of them has ever known. Way too much explanation about their abilities and positive and negative energy. We get it. If you can make it through the first 80% of the book you will really like the last 20% where the story comes together. A Bishop/Special Crimes Unit thriller with two story lines One story line is the search of an escaped bank robber on the loose in the Appalachians which brings up questions of exactly how did he escape? Then there is a widow who wishes to speak with her dead husband one last time. This was the first Kay Hooper I've read but I will be reading others. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Kay Hooper is a great writer but sometimes if the reader doesn’t keep track of the characters you will be lost from the start. I still loved the story which had a small amount of romance and a lot of paranormal scenes to carry the reader to the end. Hooper’s characters were interesting and this novel features FBI agents, private investigators and agents from a special crime unit who handle the worst most shocking and horrific most mysterious crimes.
The story begins with the Special Crime Unit coming together with Luther Brinkman who was shot when hunting for an unstable prisoner who escaped. Luther was saved by Callie Davis from the SCU agent who is investigating the potential paranormal talents of that same escaped prisoner. Luther and Callie were in the woods and sense something deeply evil near where they are and they must find out what to do before it destroys them. There are some new characters but Hollis and Reese have been in the series from the start.
Hollis is struggling to control her abilities as a medium when she arrives at the manor of an elderly lady who wants to talk to her deceased husband one more time. Hollis feels there is something else going on within the manor. She feels and than sees many spirits from the past generations of the elderly lady who are still attached to the manor and have not moved on. The plot of the story has lots of twists and turns that keeps the reader curious to read on. ( )
