A little too much gore for my taste

The book contained a little too much gore (explicit murders) for my taste, but it was otherwise fine and had a good ending. The narration by GG was spot-on.

Complex and exciting

I love the Kevin Kerney saga, and this was one of the most exciting - totally centered around Kevin's own family.

Solid Suspense

All the suspense that wasn't in the previous book was apparently saved for this one. There's a serial killer on the loose, people around Chief Kerney are being killed, and the Chief is being threatened.

The plot here has interesting twists, the killer is smart, and the suspense is well handled. The downside is that there is less character development than I would prefer. But I do like the way the book ended without really wrapping up every loose end.

Recommended.

love this series

Mr McGarrity once again knocks it out of the park and Guidall brings it to life.

Riveting, but…

This is easily the best written book in the series so far, but I hate reading “let’s go inside the mind of a deranged killer” books, so parts of this were extremely difficult for me to get through.
