Review – The Tenth Plague

Adam Blumer in his new book, "The Tenth Plague" Book Two in the Thayer Mystery series published by Kirkdale Press takes us into the life of Marc and Gillian Thayer. From the Back Cover:  Water turns to blood. Flies and gnats attack the innocent. Marc and Gillian Thayer's vacation resort becomes a grisly murder scene, with a killer using the ten plagues of Egypt as his playbook for revenge. When their friend turns up dead, Marc and Gillian put their vacation on hold, enlist the help of a retired homicide detective, and take a closer look at the bizarre plagues as they escalate in intensity. Meanwhile, a stranger is after the Thayers' newly adopted baby. Will they uncover the truth behind the bitter agenda before the tenth plague, the death of the firstborn son? Marc and Gillian Thayer have accepted an invitation to spend the weekend at a luxury resort. Shortly after their arrival bizarre events began to materialize. The plagues of Egypt as described in the biblical account from Exodus begin to reoccur, transforming the resort into chaos. Not only that an elusive killer appears to be on the loose somewhere in or around the resort property. His motives are unsettling and his methods to murder are maniacal. If you are in the mood for some crime solving, lots of danger, really diabolical villains, and plenty of fun trying to figure out the criminal mastermind then you have come to the right place. "The Tenth Plague" is a thriller, no doubt about it.  Just when you think you might know where the story is heading Mr. Blumer tosses in another turn which you take at high-speed on two wheels.  Mr. Blumer makes his Marc and Gillian so real that you feel that you are there with them at the resort and you root for them to succeed. Mr. Blumer knows how to tell a story that keeps you flipping the pages and guessing as to who the bad guy really is.  This is a wild ride read. I am so looking forward to the next offering from this highly talented author.
