“But struggle has the power to purify things.”

Mike Brink has a super power…the power to see, solve, and create puzzles. He is the Puzzle Master. After Mike suffered a football injury, his brain altered and he became one of the few suffering savant syndrome. He is happy to occupy his mind with puzzles and taking care of his little dog. The powers that be have other uses for his mind, and Mike is launched into an action-packed quest to solve the greatest puzzle ever known to humanity. 

It’s sooooo easy to see why this book is being billed as Dan Brown’s The De Vinci Code meets Alex Michaelides’s The Silent Patient sprinkled with the supernatural of Stephen King. That’s not just a good marketing tag, it’s incredibly accurate! I might add that fans of the shows Supernatural and Westworld will also enjoy this mystery. It is shrouded in mystery and full of puzzles and horror. The Puzzle Master is a page turner that will play like a movie reel in your mind’s eye. The writing and descriptions of the settings are so vivid. I’ve never found silk roses and porcelain dolls to be so creepy.
