It\u2019s been twelve years since Sara O\u2019Connell\u2019s husband, Jacob, died under mysterious circumstances. Trying to leave the memories of the sinister Jonathan Vargas\u2019s evil games behind, Sara is ready to begin afresh in the west coast with her grown children, Mary and Ben. But Dylan, Jonathan\u2019s son, is possessed by the same malevolence that consumed his father. The O\u2019Connells must prepare themselves for a deadly face-off. Cannon layers his story with hidden depths, expertly mining the O\u2019Connells\u2019 continuous struggles and Dylan\u2019s perverted sense of vengeance. As the novel progresses, the tension in the story heightens, with the protagonists struggling to confront questions of whether they can ever truly prepare themselves for the approaching danger or if they can always keep part of themselves hidden away. Cannon\u2019s fast-paced narrative places readers right in the middle of the vibrant west coast. Relentless twists avoid predictability, and the expert combination of supernatural and mystery keep the pages flying. Ben\u2019s guardian abilities are at the dark heart of an unfolding vengeance drama that will leave readers reeling. Part mystery and part paranormal fiction, the story is ripe both with anticipation and emotion, and the satisfying ending with a cliffhanger successfully sets the stage for the series finale. Dark and moody, the novel makes for a thoroughly engrossing read. Lovers of supernatural mysteries will want to take a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Guardian<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">(Legacy Trilogy Book 2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>By Mark J Cannon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coming soon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A twisty page-turner\u2026 Cannon\u2019s second installment in the Legacy Trilogy is marked with taut pacing and complicated characters as the O\u2019Connells come face to face with another psychopathic villain who would go to any length to realize his sinister motive.
