This is a chilling book, you won't be able to put it down. It is classic Lindsey, fast paced, well researched, and very graphic. Lindsey is so skilled at writing thillers, he understands the importance of a good back story and his pacing is amazing. He captures Houston perfectly as always and the story crackles with suspence. I would recommend this to anyone who loves thrillers. Thrilling indeed.
An Exciting Book!

I could not put this book down. Not only was the plot inticing from the first few pages, but it kept me guessing throughout the entire novel. Lindsey's Stuart Haydon is as intriguing as the murder he is investigating. His descriptions are gruesomely authentic and his depiction of police investigations and the criminal mind are amazingly accurate and believable. I have trouble reading other authors now with out being disappointed that they don't write like Lindsey. If you like detective novels and have a high tolerance for gore and deviant behavior, you MUST read this one
