Publisher's Summary

Every experiment must come to an end....

Marcus Holt is Subject B, a Vietnam veteran forced to run the gauntlet of Professor Abel Worthe’s sadistic study of terror. But the professor’s brutal experiment is finally coming to an end. And Worthe has saved his deadliest surprise for last. 

Still injured from his battles against the supernatural, Marcus struggles to keep his team together. As they desperately try to escape from Worthe's horrifying village, a new structure appears in the twisted landscape. A simple little house that Marcus knows all too well.... 

As the wounded soldier confronts a ghost from his past, another subject finds himself consumed by his growing paranormal abilities. Now able to force the dead to do his bidding, his terrifying power may be the key to escaping the haunted village once and for all. But it just might shatter his soul in the process. 

The final battle draws near, as enemies and allies both converge on the village’s walls. Marcus must overcome crippling pain and fear, to fight harder than he ever thought possible. But will courage be enough to beat the professor at his own sinister game? 

Or will the subjects finally join the tortured souls that haunt Worthe’s village?

Sad it’s over!

I’ve had nine books to fall in love with Marcus, Alex, Joyce, and yes, even Timmy. It’s always sad to say good-bye to book friends, but all good things must come to an end. Maybe they’ll make an appearance in another book or series? Only time will tell, but I hope so! This was a great series, and this book was a great ending!

Emotional Rollercoaster Ending

I have never cried so much reading a horror novel. I love having the characters cross stories and I hope to see more of that in future stories.

Another Amazing Series by Ron Ripley!

I won't go into details about the plot, you can read that yourself in the description, I will however tell you how much I Loved this series, especially the cameo appearances from Shane Ryan. The storyline was well thought out from beginning to end, the characters so well fleshed out you really Love and Hate them, occasionally thinking a few favorite characters should stop being stupid on occasion (yeah, I mean Marcus once or twice when he ventures out and about by himself), Absolutely Love Timmy Because he reminds me of Shane Ryan, actually, I Love all the characters who live in the village. Highly Recommended.

A fitting end to an amazing series!

A fitting end to an amazing series!

I was dreading this book because it meant the end was here and I was nervous to see how it would end, but thankfully the author ended it perfectly. It's another non stop, action packed read. Everything was tied up nicely and it even left room for seeing these characters again, which I loved. I won't say more because a lot happens and there's a few surprises so you're better off going into it with no spoilers!!

Thom Bowers was once again amazing. He captures the atmosphere perfectly and brought the story alive. I

What an ending!

OMG - this is an amazing book with great characters (both to love and hate). Ron just kept ratcheting up the suspense throughout this book. I can't say enough about this series... Book 1 to 9 - absolutely amazing.

Great Read

I can't get enough. The ending blew me away and left me very pleased I would love to see these characters make a guest appearance in another book. Maybe give Shane and Alex their own adventures.

Ron Ripley is better than ever!

This is just more proof Ron Ripley is at the top of the horror game. I cannot get enough of Facebook‘s and eagerly wait for the next one. I am sad to see this one in, but it only lets me know that there is a new theories to come. Although Marcus has a scape the professors grip, the professors reach is longer than he thought. Please forgive any grammatical errors as I am blind and dictate my reviews, but this is the second time I have listen to this book and can’t believe I didn’t review it after the first but OMG it is so worth listening to again.
