Publisher's Summary

Is there a demon hiding inside Mason Mackay? The world sees only a witty, handsome filmmaker. But one interview subject brings out something dark, something truly unspeakable, buried deep in Mason’s subconscious. Within hours, the interview subject is dead. The evidence points to Mason—and he can’t honestly say the police are wrong.

Forced to face the secrets of his past, Mason finds himself at odds with a retired FBI agent with cryptic motives. Meanwhile, a mysterious family is offering Mason not only answers but acceptance of even his darkest urges. What lies buried within Mason must be exposed…for good or ill.

Not the usual crime story

I have to admit i wasn’t sure this was my kind of book when I first started Efficient and Devine: Almost Heaven and I LOVE crime stories! I wasn’t mad about the narrators voice for Mason (kind of had a 1930’s Dick Tracey detective vibe which there is nothing wrong with but seemed out of place in the modern setting), i didn’t love the protagonist at first and i wasn’t sure what it was all about. So it took me a while to get into it but once I did I discovered how wrong I was. The start was just a clever set up for what was to come and I enjoyed getting to know Mason from others perspectives as well as his own journey of self discovery.
I also love that we got to have a small view into lesser characters perspectives which filled in more colour for the story and gave a bit more of an understanding to their personal motivations including some of the antagonists.
I also love the messaging that good people can do very bad things so too bad people can do very good things. There was also a very different perspective to the whole devil and angel on one’s shoulders which I thought worked well.
This is a well written story with well fleshed out characters and twists to keep you guessing.
Despite the adult themes I do think it’s very suitable for a teen audience.
