Jack Sheridan Mystery #4
The End is Nigh
“Look at me, Jack. This city swallowed me up. It broke me. Erased who I was. Now I’m just waitin’ to die.”
While searching for a missing undercover agent, careworn London detective Jack Sheridan finds himself thrust into the center of two equally deviant crimes. Firstly, he arrives at a park to find the mutilated remains of a recently butchered woman. Scrawled in her blood on a nearby wall are the words: I am his eyes. It’s the second in the last month and it becomes increasingly clear that London has another killer on the loose. Secondly, Jack finds himself walking into a mass poisoning. Badly cut heroin. With everyone in the criminal world blaming each other, a drugs war seems imminent on London’s streets.
Then, if that wasn’t enough, the already labored detective is forced to confront one of the most harrowing and guilty secrets of his past when an old friend goes missing and the man’s brother asks Jack to help find him. “He’s playin’ some kind of game,” the brother tells him. But just what that ‘game’ is will lead Jack to a truly devastating realization.
With a killer known as the Watchman terrorizing the city, a drugs war causing carnage, poisoned junkies, the mystery of his missing friend, fallen undercover agents, his daughter’s ever-diminishing mental state, and so much more weighing him down, Jack Sheridan has to confront his past while trying to steer the present into some semblance of order. Is the end truly nigh?

A good story; a good 'whodunnit?'
Vogel has crafted a very good character in Jack Sheridan. A man who has known all sorts of evil, all sorts of meanness... and decides that what seems to like before him is not what he is able to live with; and so, carrying all the history within him, goes about being a good man...flawed but decent, principled.
A good read; for those who are inclined to look beyond the surface...

Great book!!!
He does it again and again. The is superb and the storyline leaves you scratching your head. You don't know who it is. You think one way than something or someone happens and your opinion changes. I like the fact the books challenge your mind and make you think a lot. Another great book by Vince Vogel. Thank You!

Another great Jack Sheridan book
I have really enjoyed reading the Jack Sheridan books. This one
was just as good, my only issue is there were A LOT of people and names to keep up with. So it lost me a few times here and there, was able to figure it out and get back on track. Great books!

Holy Sh!t! Choices and Consequences
We all make decisions that have long lasting consequences and implications that will affect us our whole lives. Jack Sheridan is no different. Read this book for multiple plot twists!

Very well done
I liked the book. It was fun, but had twists and turns. It helps the reader to think and it deals with poisoned drugs and underground illegal fight matches. It will show that Jack Sheridan has a dark past.
