The Devil’s Shadow
In a vault beneath the Mediterranean Sea, a creature from myth and folklore sleeps. Government agents David Coswell and Hannah Martin join forces to find and study the creature with the hopes of harnessing its power for their country’s good. Accidentally, they release the creature and London is plunged into chaos. Lawlessness and hedonism spread as Lord of the Flies regains his strength and uses violence and fear to build his new kingdom.
David Coswell, along with his ‘handler’ Sentinel Nutbeam, retired soldier Nigel Carter, and Spanish matriarch Maria Perez help the Prime Minister confront the beast and take back control of a fractured country.
The Devil’s Shadow is a fast-paced supernatural thriller. Sometimes scary, sometimes sexy and always exciting, it is an absorbing tale of friendship, loyalty, faith and belief.

My Review
Thanks to the author for a copy of this novel and to Rachel for organising the blog tour.
The Rosie Synopsis
James Bond with sea monsters! Sex, intrigue, ancient threats to humanity rising from the depths of the ocean.
The Good
Imaginative, complex plot, with entertaining characters and a filmic quality. Loved the intrigue and build up to the reveal. How high does this plot go? Who is masterminding it all?
The Not-So-Good
The editing needs working on. Sometimes it was hard to tell who was speaking or the time jumps. It would work well as a screenplay but as a novel it is a little confusing.
