Publisher's summary

It takes an obsessive mind to know one. And Daniel Clark knows the elusive killer he's been stalking.

He's devoted every waking minute as a profiler to find the serial killer known only as Eve. He's pored over the crime scenes of 16 young women who died mysterious deaths, all in underground basements or caverns. He's delved into the killer's head and puzzled over the twisted religious overtones of the killings.

What Daniel can't possibly know is that he will be Eve's next victim. He will be the killer's first Adam. After 16 hopeless months, the case takes a drastic turn on a very dark night when Daniel is shot and left for dead.

Resuscitated after 20 minutes of clinical death, Daniel finds himself haunted by the experience. He knows he's seen the killer's face, but the trauma of dying has obscured the memory and left him with crushing panic attacks. Nothing - not even desperate, dangerous attempts to reexperience his own death - seems to bring him closer to finding the killer.

Then Eve strikes again, much closer to home. And Daniel's obsession explodes into a battle for his life...his sanity...his very soul.

Enter a world of death and near death that blurs the lines between fiction and reality in a way that will leave you stunned.

Not For The Genuine Christian...Beware

Although this book was written under the Christian genre, it isn’t a Christian book. It is a secular, horror story under the guise of a Christian book, that is all. It uses unclean language per the course for any Dekker book. The prose leads away from Christ instead of towards Christ.

Started out good

I thought this was going to be a good serial killer. It started out good and then turned stupid.

Expected more but still good.

Good beginning. Great middle. Lackluster ending. I actually thought that the Man of Sorrow was a glitch for the majority of book.

Paranormal Demonization

This was a step outside my usual genre box. With that said, I had a love/hate relationship going on with this story the whole way through. It was entertaining but a bit on the strong side for my taste with the possession.

Adam

Most of the story line felt forced and unrealistic. It was a frustrating listen for me. The narration was great.

Suspenseful

I liked the development of the characters overtime-the background news articles. I like stories that leave a lot to the imagination - the what if’s-where-when?

Wake up world

So many people talk negatively about this book saying that it was very demonic. Well all I have to say is this-If you have never dealt with demonic Entities, then you will never understand this book. I have been witnesses some of the activity that has happened in this book
Never dismiss what you do not know or understand this book was incredible very true to form!!!
