Harbingers

Repairman Jack, the fix-it guy who is the point man in a supernatural battle for world domination, reluctantly agrees to find a friend's missing niece. Naturally, he is immediately plunged into a chain of events that quickly turns darker and nastier. Although avid fans of the Repairman Jack series (this is the eighth entry) are likely to enjoy any new appearance of their hero, others will be painfully aware that Wilson has taken us down this evil road before--even Jack appears almost bored. It may be time to give the series a rest, despite its charms for those who like the blending of the crime and horror genres.
