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.

I would honestly put this up there with The Silence of the Lambs in thriller/crime novels. Excellent parallel storylines, great plot development. The court procedure seemed realistic (enough) without being boring.

A++ would recommend for crime or thriller fans.
