Publisher's summary

A car plows through the crowd at a July 4th parade. The driver climbs out, sick and stumbling, reaching out...and everyone he touches drops dead within seconds. Maeve Sinclair watches in horror as people she loves begin to die, and she knows she must take action. But in the aftermath of this terror, it's Maeve who possesses that killing touch. Fleeing into the mountains, struggling with her own grief and confusion, Maeve faces the dawning realization that she will never be able to touch another human being again.

"Weird s**t expert" Ben Walker is surprised to get a call from Alena Boudreau, director of the newly restructured Global Science Research Coalition. There's an upheaval in the organization, and she needs to send someone she can trust to Jericho Falls. Whoever finds Maeve Sinclair first will unravel the mystery of her death touch, and many are willing to kill her for that secret. Walker's assignment is to get her off the mountain alive.

But as Maeve searches for a hiding place, hunted and growing sicker by the moment, she begins to hear an insidious voice in her head, and the yearning, the need...the hunger to touch another human being continues to grow. When Walker and Maeve meet at last, they will unravel a stunning legacy of death and betrayal, and a malignant secret as old as history.

The best for last!!!

This series has impressed me the more a read... but the last one “Red Hands” has to be the best. Ben walker is an amazing layered and cinematic character always thrust into odd yet thrilling circumstances. Three books is not enough... worth the credit for each book.

I love this character!

Although Ararat is still my favorite Ben Walker book, Red Hands does not disappoint. I really appreciate the emphasis on the family bond. I can't wait for the next Ben Walker book. These need to be movies.

Good story but it it slogs

The thing about the Ben Walker books is that the supernatural element gets more explanation… to an extent. I would have liked to know more. A lot of this feels a bit protracted, and almost as if Golden espoused some interesting personal views given the fact this was published in 2020. Regardless, I enjoyed it.

I kind of wish there would be some level of follow-up regarding the dibbuk from “Ararat”.

I really hate the military horror sub genre

And I should’ve known better… Good writing, good story, just could not handle the espionage traitors crap. I think my dad would love this one. As well as westerns.

Very Average

Great Start and Decent ending, but very drawn out with not much going on during the middle
