SIN:THETICA by Keith Anthony Baird

5.0

Set in the future we meet Balaam Hendrix, a former Marine who’s done his time and has the scars to show for it.

Hendrix is a now feared bounty hunter…no one can escape his justice once he’s got them in his sight..

An interesting offer comes knocking on his door.. and although it screams “danger” Hendrix can’t turn down the money..and he’s smart too.. it might be more of an issue for him if he ignores the offer so he might as well make some money out of the situation.

What’s the job you might ask.. well he’s got to track someone down…and keep them alive long enough for his employer to mete out justice.. not his typical job.. he’s usually a shoot first kind of guy but Hendrix can manage it.

Then the twist hits.. the mark is protected.. protected by virtual reality.. if he’s brought out too soon he would die and that wouldn’t please his employer so Hendrix heads into the cyber world to track the man down.

Now this is where the twists really come.. there’s lots of action showing the skill Hendrix has but at the same time the cogs are turning and Hendrix knows things aren’t adding up.. but why? What’s the end game here… it just doesn’t make sense.

The ending left me shocked but quite in awe too.. it was a real curveball and a damn good one too.

I know I bang on about pace and flow but damn.. SIN:THETICA nails it! There’s never time to get bored or tired.. it’s exciting and engaging and the story flows naturally.

And do you want to know the craziest thing? You get all of that for less than £1 on kindle!! Like how can you say no to that??

Super 5* read!
