The Darkness
by Jason Pinter
Mira, December 2009, $7.99
The fifth installment in Jason Pinter‘s series about newspaperman Henry Parker, The Darkness, is the direct sequel to The Fury, where Parker, through the appearance of long lost brother Stephen Gaines, became aware of a massive drug cartel operating in New York City. Here, Parker and his mentor, Jack O’Donnell, uncover more information about the cartel, and its plans to introduce a new designer drug, the highly addictive ‘The Darkness,’ to the market. The duo finds themselves risking life and limb after they cross paths with the bad guys, who will brook no interference with their elaborate plans.
Although you’ll probably enjoy the book more if you’ve read the four novels that lead into The Darkness, Pinter’s latest is satisfying on its own. It’s a modern update on a familiar plot that reflects the current state of the economy and the newspaper business, while providing plenty of action and twists along the way. Pinter’s cast is well-drawn, and their reactions to the events depicted in the novel are credible, whether they be dealing with a ‘frenemy’ from another paper, or with trying to stay alive during an action-packed firefight.
Pinter fans new and old should enjoy catching up with Henry Parker and friends in The Darkness—just in time for Pinter’s sixth Parker novel, The Invited, due out in October 2010.
