"Swan lays crucial groundwork early, sketching out players that are multifaceted, complex, flawed, and struggling to grasp their hearts’ desires. He then ups the ante by shaking up their existences and making the characters fruitfully reexamine their identities, relationships, and choices." — Kirkus Reviews
LA DAWN, Book 4 of the LA Fog series, is an intricately woven, character-based mystery about how the choices we make inform our identity.
Wayob, an ancient entity who harnesses the power of a Mayan artifact to swap himself into different bodies, has turned multiple lives inside out as he blazes a trail of carnage across Los Angeles. As he learns how to move through the modern world, he grows more cunning… trying out new tricks and swapping into people’s bodies that were previously unthinkable, even to himself.
And the only four people who can stop him are Saul Parker, the ex-LAPD cop; Hernandez, his former partner; Ashley York, the young celebrity socialite; and Gray Wilson, a recently widowed painter struggling to protect his kids.
But with a young woman missing and in danger, and with the LAPD always on their tail, they are running out of time. The only way to face Wayob is to tap into dark powers they barely understand, out-think an entity who has thousands of years of experience on them, and work together to turn Wayob’s powers back on himself.
