REVIEW: INHERITING KARMA is the third installment in Mark Nistor’s contemporary, adult WHERE’S YOUR KARMA psychological, police thriller. INHERITING KARMA can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but for backstory and cohesion, I recommend reading the series in order.
Told from various third person perspectives, following a number of intersecting pathways INHERITING KARMA follows in the wake of several murders, and the shooting of another police officer, all connected by a common thread linked back to Ricky Topin’s murder spree (Surviving Karma 2), and the revelation about mad man disguised as a determined journalist who is taking aim, one betrayal at a time. The need for revenge is strong, and a previous killing rampage was but the precipice upon which to build a cause.
The world building is, once again, complex and multi-layered with gang bangers, street slang and double talk constantly going round and round, and a host of characters with aliases, dual identities, nicknames, and a determination to take control. As the police continue to look for an assassin who hides behind the anonymity of his work, everyone becomes a target for sins of the past, and the prevailing theories become more convoluted and dark, including the possibility of a second shooter.
There is another large , diverse and extensive cast of colorful and often questionable secondary and supporting characters many of whom we have met in the previous instalments. From members of the LAPD , FBI to informants, gang bangers, rock stars, drug dealers, politicians, and wanna-bes, the atypical and disparate collection of players is wide ranging and often requires a spreadsheet to keep track.
INHERITING KARMA is a story of betrayal and revenge, power and control, murder and mayhem. The premise is dark, gritty, dramatic with a colorful and embellished descriptive presentation and delivery. The characters are diverse, animated and often unconventional. INHERITING KARMA ends on a bit of a cliff hanger-you have been warned.
