Book Overview
A chilling new thriller from the author of THE 50/50 KILLER Dave Lewis is a man with a history. Haunted by his brother's murder when they were children, and scarred by his parents' grief, he's built a bitter life denying everything they ever stood for. He spends his time working as a magician, running a cynical magazine that derides his parents. New Age beliefs, and drowning his sorrows over his lost love, Tori. He's trying to convince himself the past is the past. A promise he made to Tori has got him into trouble before, and Dave's determined to move on and not let that happen again. Detective Sam Currie is a man with a past. His failure to prevent his son's death has ended his marriage and cast a shadow over his life and career. He's directed his hatred towards the one man he sees as responsible, but he has other priorities right now. A killer is stalking the city, abducting girls and sending texts and emails to their families before he kills them. When Dave Lewis appears to connect both investigations, it's an opportunity Currie can't resist...

Would you feel guilty if your friend was found dead having been bound to a bed and left to dehydrate? Should you have touched base? This is scarily realistic because of the age we live in; mobile phones, text messages, e-mail...would you be able to tell if it wasn't your friend who text you back saying that they were busy but would be in touch soon? Mosby has a knack of making his characters realistic...albeit loners sometimes...and although I liked them, they have a dark tinge to them. The book is partly written in the first person from the mouth of Dave Lewis who has a history with a few girls and works with his mate Rob on their monthly magazine 'Anonymous Skeptic'. The rest of the time it's a third person account of the action which also worked well and both styles kept me glued to the book, waiting to see what Dave was thinking and going to do next. All in all a tense read that has you suspecting who the murderer is, only to make you change your mind in the next chapter.
