Shattered Reality by C.A. King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

‘Shattered Reality’ is an engaging and enjoyable paranormal fantasy story which is a retelling of the ancient mythological tale of Perseus and Medusa and is set in modern times. In this story Mudesa Black is a successful and respected psychiatrist who has left her estranged family behind her. However, having received a phone call Mudesa finds herself heading back home to Knollville and her family’s ageing mansion to face both her fears and her destiny. Meanwhile in Knollville private investigator Perry P’s latest client who has remained anonymous is happy paying him for what he sees as an easy job for easy money. All Perry has to do is watch ‘some dame’ for a few months however the more he watches the more curious he gets about the mysteries at the ageing mansion. Perry is not the only one wanting to unravel the mansions secrets as Mudesa plays detective herself. The pair soon discover that solving the mysteries may bring them both closure but in ways that they did not imagine were even possible.
This was a page turner of a novel which had me hooked from page one. The author is very good at bringing both the setting of the book and also the characters to life due to her detailed and descriptive narrative. The storyline flowed well and the plot had enough twists in it to keep me guessing until the end. I felt immersed in the novel whilst reading it and as it’s book one in the authors new ‘Summoned’ series I look forward to reading book two.
