[Mason Trent 01] • The Storm Slayer

Review:

“Wow, what a crazy ride! The Storm Slayer by Simon Largo was gritty and gory and dark and kept me turning the pages . . . fans of Patterson will enjoy this one.”

(5 stars). Stacy Decker; Indie Book Reviewers.

New York City is engulfed by a major storm front, during which a series of grisly slayings place its eight million inhabitants in fear, and on the edge, as they try to cope with the raging weather and gruesome crime spree, as the body count rises.

In the midst of the vortex of driving wind, rain and lightening bolts, a catastrophic event escalates out of control, and causes a major power cut, plunging Manhattan into darkness for 48 hours. The city’s emergency services and besieged population are driven to saturation point, as they battle against mother nature and a psychotic killer on the loose.

One man emerges as an unlikely hero to save New York – Mason Trent – a seasoned NYPD homicide detective. Trent is determined to battle his own demons, ride out the storm and catch a dangerous killer.
