I am giving this book 5 stars not because it is a literary classic but because it is one of the best of its genre. I am not going to rehash the story here as that is available elsewhere. However, having read all of this series of books, I can honestly say that this is the best one so far. I have thoroughly enjoyed all of them but this one kept me on the edge of my seat While all of them deal with horiffic crimes and a touch of the supernatural, this one has truly gruesome tales of murder especially those involving children and more than a little touch of the supernatural. I read it in one sitting and enjoyed every page and I'll bet you will too. Worth the price and a definite "get away from it all read". |
