The Black Shepherd (Hardcover, Main)


Peter Ash and Frankie Varg of the Eurocrimes Division are on the hunt for Varg's cousin who's believed to have fled to join a fanatical religious cult. Frankie Varg of the Eurocrimes Division heads to Tallinn, Estonia, in search of her young cousin who's believed to have dropped out of university to join One World, a religion many believe to be nothing more than a fanatical cult. Hot on her heels is her field partner Peter Ash, who's searching for the identity of a woman's charred body found in the woods close to Tallinn. When Peter arrives in the city, he finds Frankie attempting to infiltrate One World by posing as a runaway sleeping rough. Brought into One World's all-encompassing embrace, Frankie is shown the work the organisation does with the homeless around the world. But is it all a cover-up for their more nefarious activities? Who is their leader, the mysterious Shepherd? What clues will the burnt body uncover . . . and is Frankie out of her depth?

A dark, dangerous investigation for the Eurocrimes Division! I very much enjoyed "The Memory Man" so I guessed that "The Black Shepherd" would not disappoint. Yes, the second in this series followed on beautifully, leading into another dark, dangerous investigation for Frankie Varg and Peter Ash of the Eurocrimes Division. Please note that both books could be read as stand-alone, but I recommend that both books are explosive, so enjoy! Frankie Varg sets off to Tallinn, Estonia. She is personally involved as her niece has suddenly disappeared from university, and it appears that she has joined a religious cult, called "One World." The figurehead is called "The Shepherd." Is this cult harmless, just full of religious fanatics, or is there something far more sinister beneath the veneer? Peter Ash also becomes involved, as a mysterious charred body is discovered near to Tallinn. Is there any connection? Frankie is working undercover and of course gets embroiled in a very tough situation, even putting herself in grave danger. Soon things get even worse as more girls start to disappear, and each time One World crops up. Peter has his own contacts at Eurocrimes as the mystery deepens, and he follows up several leads. I thoroughly enjoyed this roller coaster of a ride, but I need to inform the reader that there is a horrendous scene near the beginning, so be warned! Thank you Steven Savile, I love your books, as they are certainly page-turners. Galadriel. Breakaway Reviewers received a copy of this book to review.
