Get the composition right of tattoo ink, you have the latest mind-control drug on the market. It’s the sex-traders’ dream, or worst nightmare, depending on the concentrated dose of the ink—and just who’s wearing it….

Or that’s how it was supposed to go down.

For ex-MI7 killer, Kiyen, his ink ability has been thrown into reverse now his ink has been cut away. Drowning fast and hard in the land of the “normals”, he’s struggling to come to terms with this new way of ghosting through life.

As a Second Ink and low-grade empath, Fal’s left to pick up the pieces. Yet when the origins of the ink drip feed into Kiyen’s and Fal’s lives, Fal finds he’s in for a fight to the death to stop Kiyen falling into a darkness in soul no one saw coming.

There’s a rougher, darker soul walking through UK streets. One that’s about to turn Kiyen’s head with the true origins of… family.

J L PYKE First let me apologize for taking so long to write this review. Admittedly Jack tends to write very dark literature and she never writes a 200 page novel. From becoming acquainted with her work in the Don’t series, my expectations have been very high. This new series is sort of an off shoot, as we are dealing with sex traders, tattooing children with the Ink that is enhanced with mind control elements. I shivered through book one Broken Ink, with M-17 killer Kiyen. Now in book #2 Kiyen takes us along another road lost needing to find his way with the Ink being cut out of him.

 

Like in the Don’t series Pyke is relentless with her words and images. I sometimes had to put the story down and take a breath, not able to read the pain, yet going back like an addict for more.

Again I rave about her and the thrilling stories and characters,,,,. If you have not read her work, you need to check it out !…..

 

As I write this, I am excitedly waiting for the new sequel to her Don’t series coming out shortly!!! Natural Born Cullers …..this will be one hell of a ride!!!
