Jimmy is an old man now, living in a nursing home. When he was small, his uncle took him to a deserted cave on the Alaskan coast that contained a shaman secret. He was in training to become a shaman, so he needed this information. All it did was scare him to death and he never ventured there again. Unfortunately, someone else found that cave.
Hydra and Net Galley gave me the opportunity to read this ebook for review (thank you). October 28th is publication date, so make a note for your next bookstore visit.
The Tlingit Indians originally migrated to the north from Asia, when land connected the two countries. When they left their land, the gods grew angry with them and sent a terrible monster after them. The Tlingits used their shaman and all the natural forces they could to make a mask that would contain this demon. All was well until someone stole the mask...
Jimmy no longer lived in Alaska, he was settled in Washington. When the white raven comes to visit him again, he knows he has to go on the quest his early training was preparing him for. He's old now and doesn't want to, but he has no choice.
This evil spirit/demon is enough to turn your hair white if it isn't already. It's wicked, it finds death humorous, and it wants to control the world. Everyone who touches the mask dies an ugly death. And the mask is on the move. If the man who carries it tries to disobey, he will be killed and a new delivery person will be chosen. The worst part is that it is going after a small boy, who contains a lot of power but doesn't know it.
This is not a book you read casually. The story line grabs you around the throat and keeps your eyes on the book. You turn page after page, hoping things will get better, but pretty sure they won't. You won't be bored.
