A mysterious organization has been kidnapping psychics for some unknown purpose. The disappearances have escalated to such a degree, that it's come to the attention of Noah Bishop, head of the Special Crimes Unit of the FBI, and a psychic, himself. Bishop knows that he can't battle this organization in an "official" capacity, but he's willing to assist the band of resistance psychics who are determined to protect their own.

The previous two books in the BISHOP FILES trilogy, THE FIRST PROPHET and A DEADLY WEB, gave us some glimpses as to how this deadly organization operated, while raising many questions as to who they were, and why they wanted psychics. Those questions are answered in this final book, in a truly scary and horrifying way.

Noah Bishop has been such a powerful force, along with his psychic wife, Miranda, as they have battled evil over the years. Yet, it seems that Murphy, the enigmatic, and seemingly all-knowing woman, who is one of the major power players in the resistance army steals the show here. Her intelligence, planning, and intuition always seem spot on, as she leads her team, with Bishop's assistance, to overcome the kidnappers.

FINAL SHADOWS is a graphically violent book, and readers should be warned that there is a particularly gruesome murder of babies which may be a trigger for some. Though I'm not a fan of explicit bloodshed, I was totally captivated by FINAL SHADOWS and read it completely in one sitting. The suspense was very well written, and the revelation of who the secret organization is, and their purpose was definitely a surprise. The coldness and heartlessness of the villains was bone-chillingly portrayed, as was the dedication and humanity of the soldiers of the resistance movement. I recommend reading previous books in this trilogy to get the full background story as to what's happening. If you enjoy an engrossing paranormal suspense novel, FINAL SHADOWS may be just the page turner for you.
