The Unquiet: A Charlie Parker Thriller
by John Connolly
'The Unquiet', book 6 in the private detective Charlie Parker series, is a sad novel. It has an ending, but it isn't very happy. Not only is Parker shocked by how the stalking case he tries to fix for his new client spins out into an unexpected crime of child abuse, he suffers a more personal loss which he can't afford. Then, after learning a little more than he wants about the supernatural forces following him, he is left with a sour truth "This world is full of broken things..."
The dark entities won't let him alone, tormenting him with dark mysteries that seem to rise up within himself. But he can't seem to stop asking them questions.
The Charlie Parker series is more of a bleak, primarily paranormal, horror genre, with mysteries mixed in. If you start this dark series, gentle reader, begin with book 1, [b:Every Dead Thing|175242|Every Dead Thing (Charlie Parker, #1)|John Connolly|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1393929687s/175242.jpg|890720], otherwise most of the following books will be confusing and full of too much partial information than what is needed to completely understand what is going on. This book is the first one with a detective plot which moves forward in a straight line, so if you are too curious to read through the five previous books, this one can be read first if the intention is to give a reader an idea of Parker's world, but I think it isn't the best thing to do.
If you enjoy paranormal horror and mystery and/or dark graphic comic novels, then I recommend this series. However, those who like mysteries only may find this series TOO dark with dead things walking, dripping foul rotting bits behind them.
