About this ebook

Twenty-two years ago, Sam and Dean Winchester lost their mother to a mysterious and demonic supernatural force. In the years after, their father, John, taught them about the paranormal evil that lives in the dark corners and on the back roads of America . . . and he taught them how to kill it.

Sam and Dean are headed for Key West, Florida, home to Hemingway, hurricanes, and a whole lot of demons. The tropical town has so many ghouls on the loose that one of its main moneymakers has long been a series of ghost tours. But the tours are no more, not since one of the guides was found dead of an apparent heart attack . . . his face frozen in mid-scream. No one knows what horrors he saw, but the Winchester brothers are about to find out.

Soon they'll be face-to-face with the ghosts of the island's most infamous residents, demons with a hidden agenda, and a mysterious ancient power looking for revenge. It's up to Sam and Dean to save the citizens of Key West . . . before the beautiful island is reduced to nothing more than a pile of bones.

Ratings and reviews

I wouldn't call it a page turner, but I didn't put it down for long either. There were several instances of homophobia, racism, etc., but that's to be expected of Supernatural at this point. There WAS a nice lesbian couple featured as side-characters, which I wish we'd seen more of, and a cool Native American police officer! I noticed a couple of typos, but they weren't too bad. I liked the descriptions of Key West and Sam's kindness to the hippie poet. TW for mentions of r4pe & su!c!de as well. CW for racism against natives and prejudice against bi & trans ppl.

I'm about halfway through this book at the time of this review. It has been easy reading, good fun, and really captured the feel of a good episode of Supernatural. Don't expect a literary masterpiece, but it's a lot of fun and I'd recommend it to any fan of the show. It's a bargain at 99 cents, I'm definitely getting the other one!

I think it's much better than the first book which is written by the same guy, it was a much better story than I anticipated. I thought it was really nice got to see more of the Bromance between Sam and Dean plus Bobby was in it this time 😁
