I enjoyed this book very much. I wouldn't mind seeing a version of it my a PS game or PC game. I love stories of mystery and murder. This book even has a couple stories lines going on at once. It kept me wanting to read more and kept me wondering what would happen next. I think to me the paranormal elements added to the mystery and suspense of this thrilling masterpiece. I will would love to read more from this author! *I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review*

Brooding City is about police detective Arthur Brennan. He and his partner are called to the scene of a baffling murder, the investigation of which will lead them into the city’s dark underbelly of crime. Their lives could be the price to find the murderer and stop the flow of a drug that is infesting the city and has already taken its toll on Brennan.
Meanwhile, spending the summer on his family’s ranch, is Jeremy. A young man obsessing with an old tower on the family property. An injury sustained while exploring the tower opens his mind to an incredible and frightening power that will give him intimate knowledge that could change his family forever and lead him to do things he would never have imagined.
At first the two stories seem very much unrelated, but the reader does eventually find a most interesting connection between Jeremy and Brennan. What it means in the grand scheme of the story isn’t readily obvious.
This book kept my attention. Both stories were equally enthralling, with equally interesting characters and thrilling twists. Despite bouncing back and forth between the two, I never felt like I had to get through one to get back to the other. I was content to wait to see how they intersected. While I do still have some unanswered questions, I can wait for the next book.
I gratefully received a copy of this book in return for a fair and honest review.

Didn't leave a good feeling at the end, I was confused, having trouble to understand what was happening. It looks like there are two stories in one book. I also had lots of questions toward the background story which went on behind it. Would recommend to focus just on one character development.

I received this book from the author for an honest review.
It was absolutely fantastic, it was well developed and the mystery is not over, I'm dying to know what more will happen in this series.
The sleepers are a great paranormal add if you love paranormal books, the idea behind them is pretty cool actually, it even make me wonder if they actually exist you never know.
I loved the criminalistic part of the book since I love criminal thrillers actually and this one wasn't that heavy, it was pretty deep in the matter but you will not feel it I promise, I think the breaks here and there is what make it so enjoyable.
The characters were all pretty interesting since they were all so different from each other and that I think is a good hook for a book because you actually want to know more about their lives and why they're like that.
A super recommendation on criminal paranormal readings.
