Innocent blood tells the tale of terrorist attacks on the hollywood community including supernatural twists and turns along the way. This is a very recent book by Masterton and easily taps in to the publics fear of terrorist attacks making the bombing sections of the book all the more hoffific to the reader.The visceral grue aside I found it incredibly hard to identify with the main character Frank , who almost immediatly after the sad and terrible death of his son manages to embark on a passionate affair seemingly forgetting his own greif and that of his wife. The "twist" in this book is so predictable it will have you screaming at Franks stupidity. I found it hard to care about the characters in this book and I found it glaringly obvious from near the start who the villan was. However as usual Masterton delivers all the horror and gore you could wish for in his own gut churning style. If the reader ignores the frankly silly character relationships and just enjoys the horror then a good read should be had by all !

Masterton is truly at home when writing horror yarns about paranormal investigators and mysterious, yet sexy women who seem to be hiding secrets. Innocent Blood is no exception, however the usual elements are well wrapped up in a story of one man's grief after a terrorist attack in Hollywood. It's a brave story, clearly rooted in the events of 7/11 and pulls no punches (as Masterton readers would expect). The flaw is that the secret that the story tries to hide is rather obvious, although that said, you'll still be eager to see how it plays out, keeping you hanging until almost the very last page. It's an action packed novel, with plenty of naughtiness and some gore to keep the horror fans happy too. The supernatural elements are not the singular focus in Innocent Blood, which makes a change in direction for Masterton, but a pleasant one none-the-less. Easy to read, far too predictable, yet a real page turner.
