I'm not one for serial killer stories, but I decided to give this one a try during a reading challenge.
I really enjoyed it. Love the twists, and the perspective of the killer's past thrown in.
Will be reading more from this author. ...more

Actually I'm giving the audio version a 3 star rating. Loved the story, but the narration wasn't that great.
