"He comes into her dreams, killing, ravaging, insatiable"

"Nocturnal"'s shiny blue cover was what caught my eye and made me buy the book (yes, I'm that easily intrigued). After reading the synopsis, I was expecting something a little smutty, possibly along the lines of an old Dean Koontz novel. I was impressed that it wasn't so superficial.The book's about Rose Carpenter (a 25-year-old New York painter/part-time cocktail waitress with psychic powers) who becomes involved in a dream telepathy session with Jack Squadron (a 33-year-old married composer, who later becomes her lover), which is conducted by Dr. Reese Cindrella, a parapsychologist. During this time, two of her friends die. She witnesses it happening in her mind, of them being raped and murdered. The suspects point to the leading men in her life: Dr. Cindrella, Jack, and a mysterious third man, her stalker. But which one is it? And can she figure it out before she either goes insane or gets killed herself?"Nocturnal" is a well-written, vividly gripping paranormal horror book. The identity of the killer is hard to guess. The reader will want to suspect one character, change his/her mind a second later, then continue guessing as the clues keep unraveling. The epilogue is certainly jolting and leaves several questions unanswered, namely: Was the wrong man fingered? "Nocturnal" should definitely hold the interest of any reader who's into this genre.
