Killing Rocks
DD Barant

Reviewed by Emily Rowe
Posted December 20, 2010

Fantasy Urban

FBI profiler Jace Valchek's was pulled into another reality for one purpose: to catch the serial killer known as Aristotle Stoker. Now, should she complete her mission, returning to the exact time relies the a sorcerer known as Asher. Only Asher has combined forces with some of the most deadly and dangerous creatures on the planet. Jace is determined to finish her mission, even if it means capturing two fugitives rather than one. This sorcerer has more than a few aces up his sleeve and uses them, making not only Jace but the whole world wonder just who are friends and who are foes in KILLING ROCKS.

KILLING ROCKS is the best book of the series by DD Barant. Jace steadily seems to loose allies and friends in subtle and bizarre ways that forces the reader to come back for more like a moth to a flame, regardless of how much it hurts— much like the heroine herself. In KILLING ROCKS this sarcastic, stone-cold...cop shows just how much she'll do to complete her mission, and just what it means to lose a friend in this new, foreign world she's beginning to forcefully call home. My only issue with the series is that it can be somewhat predictable.

SUMMARY

FBI profiler Jace Valchek's ticket home from the twisted parallel universe where she's been called to duty hinges on the capture of series killer Aristotle Stoker - and an alliance with a sorcerer known as Asher. The problem: Asher has joined forces with some of the most dangerous creatures Jace has ever encountered. The solution: There is none, without Asher's help.

Jace's goal seems simple enough - to get her man, like always. But just hours after she arrives in Vegas, she's abducted...and she isn't even sure who the real enemy is. Now Jace has to wonder if she's the predator or the prey in a very dangerous game that could change not only her fate, but the world's...Meanwhile, a serial killer is still on the loose. And time has already run out...
