The killer is dark and twisted, the story is brutal but thankfully leaves some of the more graphic details out and Bobbie experiences things I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. This is a book best not read late at night when one is alone and hearing odd noises. It gives a lot of food for thought about the dark places in a soul and a battle between two opposing forces, The Storyteller and Bobbie.

What she didn't expect was for the serial killer to follow her home on Christmas Eve... The Storyteller follows Detective Bobbie Gentry home on Christmas Eve. He murders her husband, would have murdered her child (but he got away), then he kidnaps Bobbie and this is just the beginning.
Rarely does a book leave me speechless. But this one did. This is one of the most fascinating, terrifying, suspenseful books that I have read in a very long time, maybe ever. Psychological thriller writing at it's very finest.
The Blackest Crimson is a short prequel to The Shades of Death series and I, for one, can't wait for No Darker Place. Get this book, read this book, you won't be disappointed!
