Reviews

[Anne Williams]

I'm afraid I gave up on this one half way through - there was a good story in there somewhere, of the serial killer variety, but the style and unfamiliar words really put me off. Perhaps it was just me and my current preferences for books, so don't take the one star too seriously.
