Name of the Devil

A Jessica Blackwood Novel

By: Andrew Mayne

Narrated by: Jennifer O'Donnell, Fred Berman

In this electrifying sequel to the crowd-pleasing thriller Angel Killer, magician-turned-FBI-agent Jessica Blackwood must channel her past to catch a killer consumed by a desire for revenge.

When a church combusts in rural Appalachia, the bizarre trail of carnage suggests diabolical forces are at work. Charged with explaining the inexplicable, the FBI's Dr. Ailes and Agent Knoll once again turn to the ace up their sleeve: Agent Jessica Blackwood, a former prodigy from a family dynasty of illusionists. After playing a pivotal role in the capture of the Warlock, a seemingly supernatural serial killer, Jessica can no longer ignore the world, and the skills, she left behind. Her talent and experience endow her with a knack for knowing when things are not always as they appear to be, and she soon realizes this explosion is just the first of many crimes.

As the death toll mounts, Jessica discovers the victims share a troubling secret with far-reaching implications that stretch from the hills of West Virginia to cartel-corrupted Mexico to the hallowed halls of the Vatican. Everyone involved in what happened on that horrible night so long ago has tried to bury it—except for one person, who believes that the past can be hidden, but never forgiven. Can Jessica draw on her unique understanding of the power and potential of deception to thwart a murderer determined to avenge the past?

Excellent

Loved it! Andrew Mayne is one of my favorite podcasters and his story telling chops are superb.

The end felt flat

Would have given it a 5 but the last 16 mins seemed too quick as an end

Andrew Mayne does it again!

I fell in love with Andrew's writing with Angel Killer. This book only increases that love! This book ls worth every second of the 12 hour performance. Well written, well read, and excellent story and endlessly entertaining! Do not pass this book by!

None stop action

I am a fan of the Jessica Blackwood series and this book does not disappointe my high expectations. This is a great book for a long commute or a road trip. Lots of action packed chapters and brilliant villains for Jessica to spare. If you like fast paced thrillers this one is for you.

Mystery fan

Great book love the series so far can’t wait to get book 3. Loving this author so far his books are very compelling and keep you on the edge of your seat.
