Description

From New York Times best-selling author Jonathan Maberry comes a standalone supernatural thriller, Ink, about a memory thief who feeds on the most precious of dreams.

Tattoo artist Patty Cakes has her dead daughter’s face tattooed on the back of her hand. Day by day, it begins to fade, taking with it all of Patty’s memories of her daughter. All she’s left with is the certain knowledge she has forgotten her lost child. The awareness of that loss is tearing her apart.

Monk Addison is a private investigator whose skin is covered with the tattooed faces of murder victims. He is a predator who hunts for killers, and the ghosts of all of those dead people haunt his life. Some of those faces have begun to fade, too, destroying the very souls of the dead.

All through the town of Pine Deep, people are having their most precious memories stolen. The monster seems to target the lonely, the disenfranchised, the people who need memories to anchor them to this world.

Something is out there. Something cruel and evil is feeding on the memories, erasing them from the hearts and minds of people like Patty and Monk and others.

Ink is the story of a few lonely, damaged people hunting for a memory thief. When all you have are memories, there is no greater horror than forgetting.

enjoyable

I liked it, but I also have some apprehensions about certain aspects. Kind of the same as with everything Maberry writes. I enjoy his stories, I love the world-building (in this case, how it links several of his novels), but... the writing has a whiff of the "nice guy nerd bro" about it? Almost fedora-wearing white-knight-y, if I'm being really uncharitable? Nothing inherently wrong with that, but reading it as a female (especially one who is not big on romance in the stuff she reads) it's... occasionally awkward. Cringey. Uncomfortable. This is absolutely a reader issue, not a writer one, and, objectively, his love scenes are less bad than many.
Also, it was overtly "woke," which, again, isn't a bad thing, but it felt... I don't know. Well intentioned, but it missed the mark. As noted in other reviews, there're a lot of little missteps. (The "n-word" scene sticks out the most for me.) I mean, I guess attempting wokeness better than the opposite. But just, the villain was basically an incel, with no nuance. I feel like the themes of the novel were all bolded and in caps, if you know what I mean? Not particularly subtle.
Ok, the story, though. It was good. Very entertaining, satisfying, especially because it brought back and fleshed out situations from other books, and it had a nice, neat ending.
I liked it, and I'll read his next book, even though I know I will hate the inevitable love scenes.

Dark and disturbing

Dark tale about memories and how they shape us.
How tattoos are symbols of those memories.
And the monster that takes them from us.

Also ... top notch narration from Ray Porter as always.
