“Medieval
Menace” by Terri Ann Armstrong
The second in
this trilogy is by no means ‘second.’ The story takes a front seat to its
predecessor.
A demented
person is attacking people around him. One unfortunate victim found his way to
Starleen’s front porch. Well, it was only the head, but that was enough to send
Starleen screaming and running.
An investigation
is under way, but even a cop becomes target. There is someone out there…someone
who is hell-bent on destroying others. Though affiliations between the victims
are figured out, no one understands why let alone who.
Starleen’s
psychosis is revealed, but it’s a little justifiable considering what she goes
through. Her sessions with Dr. Harmon begin to help. Whether or not those
shrink sessions will be enough to combat the terror and allow her an
understanding of the reason for the monstrosity dispensed upon innocent
victims, is still up for debate.
Armstrong
successfully combines thundering action with wit. A terrific read and most
definitely a great follow through to her first novel, “Morning Menace.”
