Review: Blood Sins (Bishop/Special Crimes Unit #11) by Kay Hooper

Blood Sins by Kay Hooper
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4,5 stars

Blood Sins, the 11th book in Kay Hooper’s brilliant Bishop/Special Crimes Unit Series, kicks off just after the ending in the previous book, Blood Dreams, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4... , where the serial killer had been caught but discovered that he had just been used by a very powerful and dangerous puppet master.

The mastermind behind the horrific killings is thought to be a man named Rev Samuel, leader of the Church of the Everlasting Sin, situated in the mountains near the small town of Grace, North Carolina.

The SCU and Haven, work together to find out more about the church compound and its leader and members.

Tessa Gray, member of Haven, has the unique gift of being able to identify and connect with other psychics and their abilities is asked to go undercover as a wealthy widow living in Grace and use that status to infiltrate the church and find out more about its leader and members.

This was a really scary read.

An evil psychic whose powers are increased by draining other psychic’s powers that make him even more powerful.

What Tessa discovers in the church compound is so malevolent and evil and seeing how people are manipulated and used in the name of religion is so terrifying. The fear and the abuse that the children there go through is frightening and more than fearful.

I liked Tessa and Grace’s chief of police, Sawyer Cavenaugh, who helps her with her mission. I would have liked more romance between these two characters, but I have a feeling that the connection they have with each other will progress in the series.

And Noah Bishop finally discovering who the person behind the conspiracy to bring harm to the SCU was more than unexpected. I never had a clue!!!

Loved the appearances made in this book – Gallen, Quentin and Hollis, who I am still eagerly waiting for her book!!!

Filled with tension, mystery, suspense and ambiguity that keep you turning the pages, wanting to know – what next!!!!

A great addition to a great series.
