I received a free copy of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
This series merges the paranormal (think woo-woo rather than vampires) with spec ops. If visions of future events, psychic healing and telepathy aren't your thing, walk away now. The 'Sitrep' at the start of the book made me pause for thought and I have read the other two books.
This feels very much like a mid-series (or penultimate) book. Whilst a lot happens it is all moving along the bigger plot and the book plot is kind of irrelevant.
The book opens (prologue) with Lt Seth 'Rawls' Rawlings dying and being brought back to life through psychic healing by Kait and Cosky. Rawls comes back to life but he has brought back a ghost, the ghost of one of the enemies, the guy who calls himself "Pachico".
A few weeks ago Rawls helped save Faith Ansell, a scientist who was kidnapped by their enemies.
Whilst generally I am open to the woo-woo, FFS I love the paranormal, I find this series difficult to believe and yet I do enjoy the series.
Not the best book in the series but I am still enjoying it and want to read the next.
