This book is full of suspense, granted I haven't read the first book of this installment but It quickly reeled you in and kept you hooked.
Dawn was abducted in the middle of the night,now, three months later she's been plagued with flashbacks and visions, determined to expose whoever is behind her torment, she seeks out the anonymous group with the help of Karl Morgan whose sister went through a similar sexual trauma, in the midst of it all, they found out it runs deeper than they could have ever thought
I urge readers to read this book even if it might be outside one's comfort zone, it's worth it.

I received a free copy of this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Ancestral wasn't what I was expecting but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Suspenseful, dramatic and the ending was a wow!

I haven't read the first one in the series, but I managed to pick up the background without too much trouble.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for a copy in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

Ancestral by Nathan Field is a thriller that starts from page one. Dawn has been wronged by faceless men and she teams up with Karl whose sister had died by the same hands. Together they track down the faceless men of 'The Many' while on the run from the same organisation.

Although I enjoyed this book, it read more like the middle of a trilogy or series than a stand alone book. It started in the middle of a story where I would have preferred a lead up, this would have allowed me to become more invested in the characters.

Overall this was an easy book to read I was just expecting a bit more emotional intensity to come from it.

Fans of conspiracy theory books and the like would enjoy this book.

Ancestral was a good book that moved nicely. I love a good cult story and its concept was unique. The characters were well developed and I found myself rooting for them all along the way. It was twisted, violent and a tad bit sexual for my taste, but not over the top and very much in line with the theme, unlike some stories that throw it in for the sake of titillation and nothing else. I will say, I was pleasantly surprised and intrigued by the ending and look forward to reading the next installment.
