However, the motives behind the crimes are obscure and the group’s ability to infiltrate a variety of agencies is implausible.ĭarby is an engaging heroine and it is entertaining to see her getting the better of the men in the book. The basic premise of a religious cult abducting and indoctrinating children is compelling, and the villains come across as an even more diabolical incarnation of the Opus Dei in Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code. While The Soul Collectors is a fast paced and action packed thriller, it is not as satisfying as the other books in the series mainly due to the rather far-fetched cult/conspiracy plot as well as Darby’s unrealistic transition from forensic expert to Zena Warrior Princess. Just as Darby is about to defuse the situation, a group of armed men storm the house setting in motion a series of events that reveal the dark and deadly deeds of an extremist group involved in child kidnapping, torture and mutilation. On suspension following the events of the previous book, forensics investigator, Darby McCormick is called in to assist a SWAT team when a man, who has taken his entire family hostage, asks for her specifically.
