The Forgotten

In South Florida, fortyish Maria Gomez mourns deeply the loss of
her husband of twenty-five years Miguel.
Her family worries about her seemingly inability to connect with anyone
or do anything. However her kin never
anticipated her murder even if Miguel was involved with the Barillo syndicate.
Brett Cody leads the investigation into the homicide of the
grieving widow. He focuses his inquiry
on the mob since Miguel’s finger was found in a dolphin tank at Sea Life. New Floridian and Sea Life employee Lara
Mayhew (see The Silenced) assists Brett as her skill with dolphins may enable
them to find other body parts in the nearby bay. However when zombies attack those they loved
when they were human (similar to The Strain), the FBI sends the Krewe to help on the case.
The latest Krewe of Hunters urban fantasy romantic police
procedural (see The Betrayed, The Cursed and The Hexed) is a likable entry as
Heather Graham adroitly deploys zombies and dolphins. The cast except for the dolphins and the
heroine (only for those who read her support role in The Silenced) are
underdeveloped. Still this is a
refreshing entry since the leads are not Krewe, but deal with the paranormal
and their love like seasoned hunters.
