This book was very well written, and the author depicts the frozen coldness of Canadian winter well. However, it falls into what I call the "forensic" mystery category--with far too many gruesome details for my liking. Also, I'm not a big fan of the kind of books where you get to see inside the killer's mind, especially in a book like this where the killer is so extremely disturbing. I've been tempted to read another book by Blunt because it was so well written, but I'm hesitant because of the gore factor.
