I did not enjoy this book. In fact, I didn’t finish it. Others may enjoy the story but I could not get into it. But, don’t let this stop you from reading it.
Wow. Another great installment for Saint Tommy Nolan. At times I thought it seemed a little more violent than some of the others. I went back through the previous installments and realized the difference was less story than more of something else. Mariel and the kids are almost deserving of their own story. Without giving anything away, I am looking forward to the next part of the story. I am such a fan I will be watching for the continuation of Tommy’s journey.

In the continuing saga of St. Tommy vs demons, this book is another success. I love the book, the story, the characters, the fights, and the twists. Tom Nolan, St. Tommy, to those familiar with his job, is summoned by Father Pearson again. There has been an extraordinary attack at the Passionist Monastery that requires a very special investigator. Together with Father Pearson, and Tommy, Tommy’s partner, Alex Packard and Dr. Holland, a forensic pathologist, the team set out for the monastery. What they found was beyond description and caused this experienced team to react with horror. Not only is scene of the crime, where a dozen monks have been horribly murdered, the church desiccated and filled with filth, but the implications of the murder are hellishly frightening.
In an advancement of the attacks on humanity an old foe has reappeared and called a gathering of demons to work together to help the demon of all demons destroy mankind. In an epic battle between demons of hell and soldiers for God, death and destruction are wrought upon Massachusetts shores where the Nolan family, a police detective, a priest and a doctor fight with the aid of an unexpected ally to save the world.
If you enjoy the supernatural, if you are not afraid to read books containing references to religion, and you are looking for exciting reads with fascinating characters, this series if for you. Grab these books; you won’t regret it.
Another awesome book in the series. These books are so riveting that I cannot put them down and cannot wait for the next.

It is good to find a book that upholds strong family values. I generally do not expect that in a really good noir urban fantasy. The author has portrayed Tommy Nolan to be a really devout Catholic badass justice-seeking everyman in his previous books. Does it surprise anyone that Tommy’s family is much like him? The Nolans do a lot together – they pray, they worship, they …. save the world from the forces of Hell together? I am stopping here – you have got to read the book to find out how. You will find it thrilling!

Tommy and his family relaxed on the porch swing of a summer home owned by the local Medical Examiner, Doctor Sinead Holland, as Tommy held his 2-month-old daughter Gracie on his lap. His wife, Muriel, came out to join him while they watched an odd game where Jeremy, his son, threw things in the air while their telekinetic adopted daughter, Lena, batted them out of the way with her mind! They made it more interesting when Jeremy tossed a handful of grapes and Lena skewered them with toothpicks and piled them on a plate – again, using only her mind. His partner, Alex Packard, stepped out onto the front porch to join them as he watched the children playing.
As Tommy is cooking breakfast for everyone, the doorbell rings. Father Michael Pearson was there, his partner when he was asked to work missions for the Vatican. This time, they needed him to look into a massacre where everyone in a nearby Passionist monastery, which held most of the exorcist monks in the United States, was slaughtered. The exorcists were killed first, then the rest of the monastery personnel. The monastery was totally desecrated. Aside from his gun, Tommy wore a powerful ring that held part of the Soul Stone and powered by his faith, prayers and God. Pearson, Alex, and Tommy headed to the crime scene. The scent of evil was so horrible that he had to put on a magic golem helmet which filtered the air for him so he could breathe in the vile atmosphere. He smelled burned paper and they found that the police had completely ignored all the scattered papers in the office. That is where they found the clue! They pieced together 3 pieces of paper that missed burning and read the name of a company, Matchett Industrial. When Pearson came in with a sign-in register, a variety of names had all signed in with that company name, so they began fitting all the information together – and they had a name from a business card to begin their questioning. Are they going to need more help on this one with at least 10 killers involved?
In the author’s signature style, there are twists and turns in this rollercoaster ride that will keep the reader guessing. The action almost never stops. Powerful descriptive writing will put the whole scene clearly in the reader’s mind to experience everything that is going on. The author’s writing style is definitely impressive! Detective Thomas Nolan can actually smell evil, and he is a saint with some God-driven skills. The Saint Tommy books come down to good versus evil, and I’m glad Nolan is on our side when you see what he has to deal with!
Some scary fights. I like the way the author puts the prayers in the fight I am not sure if he is saying them out loud or to God in his head. Still I like the effect it portrays. So much goes on in these books very fast paced. The tenderness Tommy has for his family to the violence of the fighting is so stark it is awesome to witness. I can see it all going on a large screen in my head. No faces because I can’t think about who would make a better actor to portray the people in the book. To me it would have to be a new face. I like the way the children (or Tommy’s son Jeremy) takes to his new big sister, Lena and loves her no matter what. He thinks she is so cool. I really like that. She will grow up to become a power into herself. Maybe with Jeremy next to her. I do hope that there will many more of these stories coming in the future. They are so awesome.

While Tommy and his family are keeping their heads down at the secluded home of a friend, he is called upon to investigate a massacre in the area. Although there is still a bounty on his head, he and his partner agree to do what they can to find out who murdered everyone in a nearby monastery that housed most of the exorcist monks in the United States. Another thrilling mystery and adventure in the fight against evil. Tommy continues to be his usual modest self while using his god-given abilities to fight evil in this next installment of the Saint Tommy books. We get to spend time with some familiar characters and get to know newer characters better. There are twists and turns in this roller coaster ride and almost non-stop action. We get to see more
of Tommy’s family’s strength and their skills in surviving whatever is thrown at them to stop Tommy’s fight against evil. While there are obviously religious overtones, (let’s face it, with a series titled Saint Tommy, how could there not be) this book is not preachy or over the top. The religious aspects of this book are matter of fact and just part of the story. I love this series and while each book is a stand alone complete novel, I would recommend reading the entire series in order. I loved this book as I have loved each and every book in this series.
