Veil

We rated this book:

$18.99


Something is wrong with the world. People are going missing and it’s happening all over the world. Even with modern technology and social media it takes a while to get actual footage of people being taken. And the videos are terrifying: average people walking along and suddenly they are dragged away and disappear into thin air. And no one knows what to do about it.

John Calhoun has lost his son and is beyond heartbroken. He has no idea if he’ll ever see him again. But it brings him closer to his separated wife and daughter. Meanwhile society starts shutting down as more people disappear, and his neighborhood has turned into a vigilante mob looking to protect its own and he wants no part of it. But then his wife and daughter are taken too and John has to join an unusual group to find out what is going on with hopes of rescuing his family.

Janz has written a terrifying but addictive novel where you’re scared to turn the page but you have to know what happens next. Veil starts in high gear and somehow goes to full throttle in. a matter of pages and keeps it that way to the very end.
