Conspiracies by F. Paul Wilson
4.0
Jack always finds himself entangled in mysteries that start out normal and quickly turn into something else. Because of this I find myself being reminded of John Connelly's Charlie Parker series particularly because of the good vs. evil aspect of these novels. Jack is starting to question his choice of business and if he wants to continue or if he should try to go straight and just spend time with his girlfriend Gia and her daughter Vicki.
In this book Jack attends a convention on conspiracy theories in order to find a conspiracy theorist who disappeared and left a message for her husband that said to find Jack and that Jack is the only one who could help. The description of the convention and the people who attend it were spot on what you would expect at one of these convention and the stories are hilarious. Despite a brutal murder at the convention and a missing body the convention itself leads only to more questions and Jack's dry sense of humor keeps the book moving as the mystery gets weirder.
While Jack is searching for Melanie he starts getting strange packages that show up in his hotel room without anyone having brought them. The scars he got in The Tomb (Adversary Cycle/Repairman Jack) book 1 also take center stage in this book. Do the Rakoshi have something to do with this womans disappearance?
These books are constantly evolving and changing and keep getting better. Jack's rye and sarcastic sense of humor and comments just make me chuckle and keep the weird and brutal on a lighter level.
