Hooked (Book)

Very good novel written by Emily Mcintire, part of series ( technically book 4 but all can be read as stand alones) From the back: Once upon a time, there was a little boy. His belly full of laughter, his life full of joy. Until one day, something changed; stripped his innocence away. The hole inside making space for the devil to come and play. His dreams gone forever, he grew up way too fast. An endless night of crocodiles and watches made of glass. He grew into a villain, the taste of vengeance on his tongue. Craving to make his enemies pay for the misdeeds they had done. Instead he found a darling girl and refused to let her go. For what better way to make the man pay, than to steal his little shadow. **First in a series Plot was rich and well developed all the way to the end.
