Publisher's Summary

A town shrouded in the occult. An evil that lurks in the dark. The SCU returns in a hair-raising novel from New York Times best-selling author Kay Hooper.

Nellie Cavendish has very good reasons to seek out her roots - and not only because she has no memory of her mother, and hardly knew the father who left her upbringing to paid caregivers. In the eight years since her 21st birthday, very odd things have begun to happen. 

Crows gather near her wherever she goes, electronics short out when she touches them, and when she's upset, really upset, it storms. At first, she chalked up the unusual happenings to coincidence, but that explanation doesn't begin to cover the vivid nightmares that torment her. She can no longer pretend to ignore them. She has to find out the truth. And the only starting point she has is a mysterious letter from her father, delivered 10 years after his death, insisting that she go to a town called Salem and risk her life to stop some unnamed evil-before her 30th birthday.

As a longtime member of the FBI's Special Crimes Unit, Grayson Sheridan has learned not to be surprised by the unusual and the macabre - but Salem is different. Evidence of satanic activities and the disappearance of three strangers to the town are what brought Salem to the attention of the SCU, and when Gray arrives to find his undercover partner has vanished, he knows that whatever's hiding in the seemingly peaceful town is deadly. But what actually hides in the shadows and secrets of Salem is unlike anything the agents have ever encountered.

Good book

Liked it. Enjoyed listening while I was at work, made the time fly by. I would recommend it

Meh

I was kind of bored by this book. The premise was interesting and if the characters had done more besides sitting around talking about what was going on and actually doing something about it, then this would’ve been a more entertaining listen.

The narrator did a great job with what she was given. You could distinguish one person from the next and she had great intonation.

I love this series, this one just fell flat for me.

once again a great story. the ending was too fast

the ending was too fast and anticlimactic. the book was good. I would buy again

Salem

Good book

Once again...

Another great suspenseful read from Kay Hooper! I have never been disappointed with the Bishop series stories and no exception with this one.

Love thus!

I love all of the Bishop Series. Kay Hooper keeps you in the edge of your seat!

Ending...

When I first started reading Kay Hooper's books (back with the Shadows series) I was captivated the whole time! The endings and culminating fights were so vivid and detailed. Lately, I feel as if she has strayed away from those battles and now they just have a start and end. I am longing for more details. I love her stories and the agents she has evolved and brought to life. I am just hoping for more umfph at the end.

Started off Good

There was a lot more that could have been done with this story. It started well but let you down as the book continued. A couple of the characters were interesting, the main one rather non plus.

my first Kay Hooper book

This was my first Kay Hooper book. I found it to be very exciting and interesting. The characters were well developed, with plenty of information to cover the background story of the Bishop Center....now onto The First Profit!!
