Uncovering The Truth…Will Take An Exorcist
Jimmy Holiday, defrocked priest turned exorcist, is trying to get his life in order. With his on-again off-again witchy girlfriend moving in, the spirit of the little girl from his last exorcism hanging around, and a secret organization of exorcists hounding him, Jimmy equals stressed.
When a stranger calls in the middle of the night asking for help with a possession, Jimmy is about to land in a mess of trouble. Especially since the man on the phone claims to have gotten his number from Jimmy’s old mentor. Too bad his mentor has been dead for years.
After a mysterious silver flask arrives at his doorstep, Jimmy is left with two options: either ignore the newest enigma the universe has tossed him, or listen to Lucy and travel to Arizona to solve the mystery before all hell breaks loose…again.

My Review: (Thanks to NetGalley)
SPOILERS!!!!
I don't know how I feel about this book. Nothing really which is weird. I'm not in love but I'm not hating it either. Kind of a 'eh'.
I would say that it is probably a good idea to read book 1 (Sorrow's Point) first because a lot of this book was dedicated to Lucy who was the victim of the first book. Then the rest of the book is focused of Nicholas Vespa. That bit just left me confused at the end. Was he or wasn't he aware of his demon half? Was it like a split personality? Why did he say he spent a year summoning the demon if it was always part of him? Was it? The end was kind of rushed, especially compared to the slow pace of the rest of the book. And it seemed like a bit of a cop out when the Devil just turned up to fix everything and then told them to 'be careful'.
Obviously a lead on to the next book but I don't think I'll bother.
