FBI behavioral psychologist Daniel Clark has been made famous by his arguments that religion is one of society's greatest antagonists. What Daniel doesn't know is that his obsessive pursuit of a serial killer known only as "Eve" will end in his own death at Eve's hand. Twenty minutes later Daniel is resuscitated, only to be haunted by those twenty missing minutes of life. It soon becomes painfully clear that the only way to stop Eve is to recover those missing minutes by dying . . . again. What isn't nearly as clear is just how many times he will have to die to discover the truth, not only about Eve, but about himself. Daniel will have to face haunting realities about demon possession in the modern world-and reevaluate his prejudice against religion-to stop Eve.

      FBI psychologist Daniel Clark is obsessed with capturing an elusive serial killer known only as Eve. When Daniel is shot by Eve, his resuscitation 20 minutes later leaves him with no memory of his killer's face, and he attempts to recall the memory by reliving his near-death experience. At the same time, the terrible and haunting story of who Eve is and how he became a killer is told in disturbing snippets throughout the novel. This supernatural thriller is both a character study and a highly charged suspense drama. Themes of exorcism and child abuse may upset sensitive readers, but this title will appeal to general thriller enthusiasts. Highly recommended for Spanish-language suspense collections.

      In his hunt for the serial killer known as Eve, forensic psychologist Daniel Childs suffers a gunshot wound resulting in his death and resuscitation. While dead, he discovers within his mind the key to the mystery, if only he can find the lock. Tim Gregory narrates with impeccable timing, never giving away more than the restrained text offers. His clear, effortless-sounding narration is both involved with the story, and detached from it. A series of chapters inserted throughout the book details the killer's childhood and the events that lead to his current crimes. Gregory delivers these with a slightly different pace and tone--almost sounding like another reader. The surprise ending works, both in terms of content and performance, leaving the listener waiting for more from this pair. R.L.L. 2009 Audies Finalist (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
