Lots of exciting parts and I was surprised by the ending a little bit.

This was such a fun read! I couldn’t stop once I had really gotten into it. There was a lot of potential for the killer to have  a great motive, but ultimately that part fell flat to me (and was a little corny tbh). Otherwise, I really enjoyed this book. I’m excited to read the other book in this series.

Very dark and very graphic deaths.  This is something I usually don’t like, and didn’t here either - but, I couldn’t put this down.  I had to know what happened next.   I’ll give the author credit, it’s a great story.

Wow.. I am impressed. This was a really well written book. Felt like I was reading a law and order episode but better. The main guy is a sick son of a B.. I enjoyed following with the plot and all the twists and turns. Some I didn’t even know until the very last few pages.
