Threads Of Malice
This is the second book in Jones' series, and the book has a thriller edge to it. At the outermost regions of the kingdom, young men are going missing – and are later found dead. The authorities believe that only a few men have died, but in fact the number is much higher. Dubric Byerly, head of security at Castle Faldorrahm, know the exact number because he's cursed to have all the victims' ghosts follow him around. So when the latest victim's ghost doesn't not show up to demand justice, he knows the young man must still be alive – but Dubric knows that it's just a matter of time before the killer ends the young man's life. He has to act fast to find the killer before he strikes again.Why It Made the List Jones uses a unique set of skills to allow the characters to handle some forensics in the book, not what would be expected in a fantasy novel where the characters feel more medieval than modern. This is the second book in the series, but all the books are recommended to anyone who likes fantasy.'Read It If You Like'fantasy, elves, knights, thrillers
