\"Prophecy<\/a>New readers, take note: Prophecy<\/a><\/em> is a three-part series that needs to be read in order. No shortcuts, no interruptions. To catch up, go back here<\/a>\u00a0before continuing further.<\/p>\n

The final volume begins in the midst of an emergency call that should never have been made: \u201cThere are four of us in the group, myself included,\u201d the caller confesses. \u201cWe first met three years ago at a day labor job site \u2026\u201d But before he gives away \u201cour true objective,\u201d he panics, hangs up, and\u00a0erases any evidence of his presence, at least in the phone booth. The security camera, however, is running \u2026 and the hunt quickly resumes.<\/p>\n

Paperboy is back online, announcing the\u00a0next target to be\u00a0a high-ranking, dirty politician who\u2019s scheduled to make an appearance at a public event the next day. Nelsin Kato-Ricarte reappears on the police radar as the uploader of the latest death threat. In a game of \u2018catch me if you can,\u2019 Lieutenant Erika Yoshino is determined to win. One by one, she\u2019s unmasking Paperboy x 4 \u2013 but the wild goose chase is nothing like anyone expected. Meanwhile, the as-yet infallible foursome are up to something unthinkable.<\/p>\n

Ultimate targets and fatal threats coincide for harrowing\u00a0results. Even the sharp, savvy Lieutenant didn\u2019t see this coming: so much so that screams of abuse are all she can muster when all is revealed. You’ll be just as\u00a0speechless, too.<\/p>\n

Once begun, the series demands \u2013 and deserves \u2013 your immediate attention. Make sure you have all three volumes within easy\u00a0grasp, then go somewhere no one can find you and read straight through. Loyalty, betrayal, desperation, hope, are mixed with illegal immigration, left-behind children, mixed-race perils, unbreakable bonds, to create a volatile, adrenaline-pumping, deftly-plotted shockfest. Catch them if you can, indeed …!<\/p>\n
