"From the very first line to the very last word, this book held my attention. I was drawn into the family's pain and disbelief, I hated the villain with a deep passion, hoping that he would get his own, and I cheered (verbally) at the end of the book.
If you like a good crime story mixed with a really good thriller-type write, this is the book for you!
Well done, Mr. Evans! This is 5-star all the way!" - Amazon
Description:
Published: October 2014
A family is torn in half when a careless killer evades justice. Jason McDowell's bad choice to drive to work drunk one morning leaves a father dead, a daughter in a coma and her twin sister and mother to try and pick up the pieces of their shattered lives. Three years later while Jason has gone on with his life, ignorant of the struggles of his victims, someone has decided it is time for him to face justice.
"Animus is clearly well-planned, well-researched and very well written. The drama is continuous, leaving no opportunity for the readers mind to wander off course. The pace is steady, making the read easy to follow and enjoyable. Every paragraph is meaningful and adds to the story, making the editing just right in my opinion.
The author has managed quite well to avoid being over-descriptive regarding crime scene evidence, court proceedings and medical terminology so as not to lose the reader’s attention, especially given his background and the knowledge of the research he has carried out. Although, everything the reader needs to know is there and so it allows for an easy read, albeit dark and serious.
When I read a novel there are usually some background characters that I become fond of, and I found some great ones in Animus." - Amazon
