Genre: Mystery/Supernatural
Description:
“The paranormal investigation team of Lacey Fitzpatrick and medium Sam
Firecloud is keeping tabs on a serial killer case that’s baffling the LAPD:
four murders in a month, with no solid leads or suspects. When Sam and Lacey
offer their assistance, the PD reluctantly agrees, but Sam gets more than he
bargains for when he visits the crime scenes. In addition to picking up
impressions from the victims, he’s also receiving feelings from the killer
himself. Sam’s unusual connection to the murderer’s mind may help them catch
the criminal, but it could also lead the murderer to them. In a deadly race
against time, Sam and Lacey piece the clues together to catch the killer before
he catches them.”

Appraisal:
I didn’t know what to expect in Blood Walk, I’ve gotten used to
the way Sam and Lacey work. This time Ms. Bowersock throws the reader, along
with Sam and Lacey, a curve ball that changes things up with unexpected
consequences. Trying to catch a gruesome serial killer who seems to not have a
discernable pattern besides the disposal of his victims. The police are
perplexed and welcome Sam’s mediumistic assistance.
The plot moves at a nice pace as Sam and Lacey try to identify the
elusive killer and plan their wedding. Lacey has amazing Google skillz that
offer as much guidance as Sam’s readings. (Honestly, I don’t know if Lacey uses
Google. I just wanted to say Google skillz.) Blood Walk is well written with
fully rounded characters and intelligent dialogue. The end of the first
storyline is full of suspense, tension, and heart stopping action. The end of
the story is heartwarming and may leave you with happy tears. It did me. I
can’t wait for the next book. Anyone who loves mysteries with a small dose of
the supernatural will enjoy this book. And the whole series.

FYI:
Blood Walk is the eighth book in Ms. Bowersock’s A LACEY
FITZPATRICK and SAM FIRECLOUD MYSTERY SERIES. Each of these mysteries can be
read as a standalone if you choose. However, I am enjoying the relationship
developing between Lacey and Sam, so I would recommend reading from the
beginning to get the full benefit of their storyline.
