I read this in a couple of sittings (ok… one of them took me into the night and finished 2am) but its one of those books that you just can’t leave on a cliff hanger! Every single chapter got me thinking allsorts and was always certain that I had worked it out. But I didnt… not until somewhere in the last 70 pages, and this, for me is where it lost half a star. Maybe its just me, but i was not satisfied with the outcome. However, I can’t rate is any less than 4 stars because it totaly sucked me in. The writing is clever and there is no way you can just read it leisurely. It needs to be taken in all in one go if possible. The juicy descriptions of some murder scenes are really done well! …. what’s it about? So right from the start, we know there’s someone dangerous on the loose. We hear from them first and inbetween the ‘him and ‘her chapters. ‘Him’ is Jack the detective. ‘Her’ is Anna the tv journalist/newsreader. Both are connected to a violent murder, but both are working on the case. Nobody knows their connection. The narrative told from the ‘killers’ perspective is totaly clever, one minute you think its obvious who they are. Then the next your baffled. It has many layers. It’s fast sharp and quite creepy in parts. Loved it. But that little revelation at the end… is questionable. Just my opinion. But 4.5 stars! 100% worth reading!
