Critic reviews

‘Sick and twisted. So thrilling!' - author, Matt Shaw

One of the best books I ever read

I can’t say enough good things every part of it was excellent and the characters all had great chemistry as well

Iain Rob Write Rocks!

Imagine X-Files’ Mulder & Scully; only Mulder is a former serial killer (think Frank Abagnale from ‘Catch Me If You Can’). Who better to profile and catch serial killers than a former serial killer? The story and narration were outstanding, the ending twisty - didn’t see it coming. Looking forward to the next one in the series. Iain Rob Write Rocks!

Not a bad story but

I find the premise of a former serial killer trying to find redemption by assisting investigative team intriguing. Sort of like if Hannibal continued the work with the behavioral unit and repented of killing. Additionally the recruitment of a damaged vet to be the partner was also good. That she threw so much shade at her prospective partner about his history seemed over blown and excessive.
