"Imagine demon assassins who kill their victims by creating their worst fears.... Now imagine they’re after you!"
Link Balsey is working on a better life for himself after making stupid mistakes that cost him his long-time girlfriend of five years and turns his focus into his carpet cleaning business and best friend, Dante.
When he arrives at the mansion of his next customer, he’s instantly attracted to the woman of the house, Becca Falco. She continues to order services from him over the next three days, and she’s as into him as he is her. The only thing in the way is her abusive husband who happens to be a mob boss. He’s got connections to assassins and the police, and as his suspicions of their affair escalates, Link realizes it’s either kill or be killed.
But hiring Damage Inc., a company of demon hit men from a parallel world, could be opening Pandora’s box, and unleashing a string of nightmares come to life that may be impossible to put back.

“When you want more than putting your foe to rest, giving him what he deserves is what we do best. Call 1-800-I DAMAGE.” (Kindle Location 610)
Focus on the phrase “what he deserves.” Not only is there a fee for solving problems, that is only to be expected, the client must also provide details to Damage, Inc. about how the damage is to be done and to what extent. Should there be torture before a final kill? Clients must describe the torture Damage Inc. agents will apply. A favorite question on the Damage Inc, questionnaire is about the worst fear of the target. Does the target fear mice? Clowns? Damage Inc. will somehow work the worst fear into the solution applied for full customer satisfaction.
Once a Damage Inc. service is ordered, there can be no order cancellations. Orders come with a guarantee of customer safety. In company history, law enforcement agencies have never tracked killings back to the company, much less the client. When the perpetrators are only in this dimension for a limited time while performing jobs, they are hard to catch by police forces confined only to one dimension.
Link works for a carpet cleaning service. Accepting a service call at the home of a wealthy couple, Ren and Becca, Link is offended by the miserly Ren but captivated by the abnormally perfect features and beauty of the lady of the house, Becca. Disregarding the rule of “If it is too good to believe …” Link has no problem immediately falling in lust with Becca. The “too good to believe” part is that Link accepts the fact related by Becca, she is in love with him. It is love at first sight, followed by several days of carpet cleaning service calls. On the fourth such day, Link finds Becca severely beaten. She tells Link that this is a normal part of her relationship with Ren but she cannot report anything to authorities because Ren, a mob boss, has anyone in authority in his pocket. Reporting Ren brings more serious beatings. Link notes that she is wearing a surveillance ankle bracelet, so she cannot leave the house. Becca has heard of Damage Inc. Perhaps Link could help her by acting as an agent and ordering a solution to their problem. After dealing with Ren, Link and Becca will be free to begin a new life.
Link agrees to help. After which, all hell breaks loose (almost literally). Summoned demons, agents of Damage Inc., get very creative with their forms of torture prior to death. Some descriptions might be too explicit for the faint of stomach. Violence is gory and graphic. You have been warned. I gave this novel four Amazon stars because Link is stupid and naive beyond belief. Most readers will know early in the story that there is no good outcome for a Link and Becca romance. There is a long “waiting for the other shoe to drop” period. When it finally drops, there is a nice twist. This is a fast-paced, page-turner, entertaining read to while away a couple of hours. It is available as a free read on Kindle Unlimited.
But with that out the way?
Damage Inc. isn't bad, not bad at all.
It's not what I'd consider completely horror, there's a bit of adventure in there as well.
I'd certainly be willing to read book 2 in the series.
I liked the main character, though I would note there were about two chapters of him falling in love I could have probably done without - though I should note I am very much Not a romantic person in any way lol.
Still, Damage tells a good story.
A cool story.
And, fact is, the idea of Damage is one heck of a great one...I consider it pretty much Brilliant, my compliments to Mr. McKay for his awesome originality!
I am not one to give away a huge amount of the story but, seriously, I Have to say a few things so folks will catch on to the cool idea that is Damage Inc:
1) A broken guy meets a classy lady.
Link and Becca. Link is actually kind of an 'every man' kind of guy. I like him and it would be very cool to see him in future books.
2) A classy lady convinces the broken guy to hire a group of Demonic Hitmen to kill her Husband.
Yup! Demons who are professional hitters! Gotta love it! And, while they're maybe the bad guys umm...they're actually kinda cool.
I wouldn't mind them coming back in a future book either or, for that matter, in their Own book! I hope the writer Intended for them to be as
entertaining as I actually found them!
3) After they do the job, the Demonic Hitmen go after the broken guy to see if they can break him permanently.
Which is when all hell breaks loose!
So, ultimately, I have two things I look for in a book:
Did I learn anything? Well, no, but this wasn't exactly a book on organic chemistry.
Did I have FUN??! To this most important question I can only say: Yes!
It was a Fun book, it has a cool concept and I enjoyed the heck out of it.
Hope to see more of Damage Inc in the future!
