So far the best in the series! Ethan Proctor is on what his colleagues term "overload" after his last three adventures and due to the fact that his mother may die at any moment. His friends suggest that he go away for a few days (along with them) and take some time at a hotel/casino in Atlantic city along the boardwalk.

He goes along, unwillingly, and runs smack into a series of unsolved murders done by someone the papers are killing "The Ripper," due to the fact that the killer is leaving the corpses without throats. Although Proctor is supposed to be on vacation, he becomes very interested in these crimes, and of course, with Proctor involved, you know there is going to be a supernatural element involved.

Time to order #5! I love these books...but I would definitely recommend that you read them in order or you are going to miss the back stories going on. The author does try to recap at the beginning, but there's a lot that you miss & won't get if you haven't actually read the series.

Recommended for those who enjoy good solid supernatural fiction. ( )
