Bryan Cranston's kidnapper character wears particularly sinister orange-shaded glasses in Cold Comes the Night. The prison guard in Cool Hand Luke wears a pair of sinister shades while watching the prisoners in the hot sun. Fender Tremolo in Cyborg (1989) is nearly all the time sporting his pair of 80's vintage black, dirty shades. The Sinister Shadow book. Read 12 reviews from the world's largest community for readers. When millionaire Lamont Cranston and attorney Ham Brooks are ki.
I'm not kidding! It's not just one of those things a reviewer writes but doesn't mean. Had this been a movie I'd have been white knuckled, easing towards the edge of my seat. And, I like that DeLeon doesn't drag things on and on.The plot is good, rife with evil and bad intentions. So frightening to think that this new Five stars!!

So frightening to think that this new case Shaye has taken on could actually be reality. With all the evil present in the world we now inhabit, it isn't hard to imagine.
Book Two in the Shaye Archer series created real nightmares for me, nightmares so scary that I actually took a short break from reading. Of course, I don't normally read books that terrorize me.
I've had nightmares since I was a little girl. I try to steer clear from stories that add to my fear, but for Jana DeLeon's Shaye Archer, I'll happily lose a few winks. Did I mention that Shaye Archer was a badazz?! Good thing, too.
Shaye's going to be facing her own nightmares head-on in Book Three, DIABOLICAL. Can't wait!P.S.- Movie option, Ms. Would be most excellent.;).Jana DeLeon recently released the fourth book in the series, WICKED, which currently sits at the top of my TBR wishlist.
