Repairman Jack is back! An anonymous mercenary, with no last name and no social security number, Jack has thrilled a veritable army of readers ever since his bestselling debut in The Tomb. Jack can fix any problem, supernatural or otherwise, for a price. Now, in his latest gripping adventure, he takes on two cases at once. The first involves a nun being blackmailed by someone who has photos of her she doesn't want made public. What's in those photos, she won't say, but with her meager savings just about exhausted, she hires Jack to help her. The second seems straightforward enough, as an elderly woman hires Jack to find her missing son. But to locate his quarry, Jack must infiltrate the inner reaches of the Dormentalist Church, a secretive, globe-spanning cult whose members include some of the biggest and most powerful names in entertainment, sports, and politics. Ruthless in its pursuit of critics and enemies, the Church hides a sinister agenda known only to its ruling elite. But Jack can be ruthless, too, going to darker lengths than ever before as he crisscrosses the two fix-it jobs to settle the deadliest of scores!… (mais)

Like the other Repairman Jack novels, he is hired by two different clients for different jobs, which turn out to be related. In one story line, he is hired by a nun to stop a blackmailer Jack already knows. In the other, he is hired to find an aging woman's son, who has joined a cult. It turns out that the cult has ties to the Otherness, and Jack has to defeat their latest gambit to cause the end of days. ( )

The seventh entry in the string of novels that chronicle Repairman Jack’s adventures between his first appearance in The Tomb and his last in Nightworld, the final act of “The Adversary Cycle.” I can recommend any book in series (but in order is best). Wilson is great at setting up early what he will need at the conclusion. It reads seamlessly. ( )

Wilson takes a few pot shots at Scientology in this installment of Repairman Jack. Jack has to infiltrate the Dormentalist Church, and it's some fucked up shit. I really liked this volume because events are coming together to form a bigger, broader picture. For the first time, Jack's fix-its go horribly wrong. And Gia, Jack's special lady, acts as the proverbial loaded gun on stage. I already have book 9 out from the library and am ready to go. ( )

Another dark addition to the Repairman Jack series. Fans of suspenseful thriller will be recommended to try this series out (but first start at the beginning). ( )

A nun is being blackmailed by an old enemy, and Jack is hired to locate a young man who has disappeared into the Dormentalist Church, headquartered in NYC. The cult turns out to have ties to the Otherness.

Either this series is getting progressively darker, or the cumulative weight of all the deaths of innocents is getting to me. I'll keep reading, but I need a bit of a break first. ( )
