"I'll be completely honest. I think the book has potential. The end has a good set up for another book, and it has an interesting twist... Even though you can most likely see it coming. But you have to get halfway through the book for it to become interesting in the slightest. It's a dull read until you read about the killers past, which is interesting because it's disturbing. It's not a bad book, but if it's hard for you to through boring segments in a book then this probably isn't the book for you. "
"If you're into thrillers like I am then this book will sustain your interest all throughout. This author is quickly becoming one of my favorites!"
