Jack Severn is a zombie with a mission.
He needs to find out how he died, why he is back and who
brought him back. Freshly raised from the grave, Jack
stumbles into the place he was murdered and is convinced to
become a stripper.
Brianna Henley is an ex-police officer
whose dead boyfriend is back. A year ago she witnessed her
boyfriend’s murder at a local dance club. Now she runs into
Jack during his audition to become a stripper. Brianna thinks
it must be some kind of joke because there is no way Jack
could be back.
After the shock wears off, Jack and
Brianna are determined to find out what is going on. Along
the way the two gather a motley crew of friends to help stop
the killer.
Zombie Jack started off
funny. It was probably wrong of me, but the first sentence,
“His arm fell off, again” made me laugh. Of course, picturing
a zombie stripping just makes me laugh. Samantha Winston kept
me on my toes with the suspense aspect of this book. She did
a wonderful job of keeping me guessing and throwing in a
couple twist and turns along the way. Ms. Winston’s
characters are well thought out and wonderfully neurotic! I
felt for poor Brianna and laughed at the same time. I was
right there with Brianna in trying to get over the ick factor
of a zombie having sex, but Ms. Winston has a way of making it
believable, wonderful and sexy all at the same time.
All in all, Zombie Jack was
a wonderful read and I’m Joyfully Recommending this book and
can’t wait for more from Ms. Winston. |
