I was really looking forward to this one after reading positive reviews on Amazon and Goodreads but unfortunately I was disappointed. It wasn't an easy read and let's just say have a dictionary handy because there's an overload of extremely long words! It's one of those books that feels bogged down by the writing style. I found myself skimming through sections of text, which is something I normally just don't do. I felt a sense of relief upon finishing and was pleased to put this one behind me.

📗The Blurb
The renowned archaeologist, James McKenzie, has uncovered many prophecies, each with a mysterious symbol accompanying their inscription. Now, edifices of this symbol are reappearing, not engraved in aged rock, but painted in blood above the victims of a serial killer, and the fanatical cult he serves. Detective Hassom is charged with the task of making sense of this slaughter and capturing the perpetrators.
