Publisher's summary

When the Second Son rises, the Circle will fall.

Uttered years earlier by a troubled seer, the prophesy provides a significant clue to the death of five-year-old Aiden Braddock. But gathering proof enough to catch a killer is easier said than done.

Their relationship strained by the recent revelation of devastating secrets, Sully and Dez must figure out a way to work together as they continue to seek justice for their loved ones.

A possible solution lies buried deep within a 40-year-old mystery. Psychiatrist Roman Gerhardt’s son was just six when he disappeared; Sully and Dez are banking on Gerhardt turning over damning information on Lowell Braddock—if the brothers can uncover what happened to the little boy and stomach what will amount to a deal with the devil.

But digging into the mystery will do more than force Sully to face the torture he endured two years ago. As he closes in on a final confrontation with one of his most dangerous foes, Sully’s about to discover his darkest enemy might be himself.

For mystery and suspense with a ghostly edge, check out The Sullivan Gray Series today. If you like Odd Thomas or the Winchester brothers, it's time to meet Sully and Dez.

Wonderful!

If you have read any of my reviews on this series you'll know by now that it is one of my all-time's favourites. The perfectly plotted main arc, the fantastic characters, the individual arcs of each book, all of them make reading these stories a joyful venture.

The last book ended in a heartbreaking moment, with Dez horribly hurt at what he perceived as Sully's betrayal and throwing Sully's parenthood in his face as a gut reaction. So, when we find our friends again they are both hurt and regretful. But Sully and Dez's bond is stronger than anything that we can imagine, and they soon find their way to forgiveness. I adore how Eva gently prods Dez to deal with his anger and the way she walks him around his options. She's such a wonderful, smart woman =D

And let's not forget about the killing of Montague! Forbes, who is investigating the murder, is looking for Sully, as he recognizes him from the surveillance videos. Although he hasn't said anything about it to the rest of the force, and only contacted Dez about it.

And Lachlan? He is proving to be a more than helpful ally and he's more than willing to help to bring Lowell down. And, to be honest, I too want to see Lowell burn in hell.

The main arc is closing and some of the long-standing mysteries are being revealed here. And I was delightfully surprised by Forbes' surprise :P And I'm more than happy with the poetic justice of Gerhardt's punishment.

Remember Paul, from 'Black Candle'? He's back, and I suspect he'll have an important (and probably very dangerous) role in the next book.

Emily is still amazing: brave, resourceful and willing to risk everything to bring justice to those to whom it was denied in life.

The storyline is, as always, thrilling and full of suspense; the writing simply phenomenal, intriguing and so talented. Yes, I'm an unabashed fan of H.P. Bayne's writing, but really, is there anyone who has read her books and doesn't love her writing?

This is a superb book in an outstanding series and I can't recommend them enough. Take a chance here and read the whole series, you won't regret it.

AUDIOBOOK: This is such an emotional story and a turning point in the major arc of the series. One of the shinier, major themes is family. How they shape us, how we are, in part, what our upbringing made us but also how we are, too, what we have made of ourselves.

Revisiting this story made me love these characters even more, and John Downey adds such wonderfully emotional deep to the characters whit his fabulous narration that I couldn't help to fall in love with them all over again ♥
