I absolutely loved this book! Would recommend to others and have already!Esta resenha foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Resenhistas do LibraryThing. Keith Victor is a serial killer who has never hidden who he is – kidnapping, then killing his (so far) six victims. Law enforcement knows his name and more about him, but haven’t (yet) been able to find or stop him. When he kidnaps Chrissy Weeks, though, he has gotten in over his head. (This is not a spoiler, as it happens at the start of the book): Chrissy walks into a police station right around the same time Keith Victor’s body is found. He has been shot in the head. She gives strange and confusing answers to the police’s questions. I really liked this. It was a very different take on a mystery. One thing that I found a bit confusing, though, was sometimes referring to characters by first name and sometimes last name. Especially the police and FBI – there were quite a few of them, so it got a bit confusing to remember who was who. The author did look into the personal lives of some of law enforcement, as well. I did (mostly) enjoy those stories, too. There was a cliffhanger ending, though, so this means I will “have” to read the next book (whenever it comes out – hope I remember!). Esta resenha foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Resenhistas do LibraryThing. Sometimes it is helpful to place people into various categories, but the groupings should not be based on spurious labels such as skin color, gender preference, or “abnormal” tags. Mislabeling people for one’s own convenience leads to potentially lethal decisions. The positive method for describing heroes and miscreants alike is to consider their consistent patterns of behavior. Readers of this very good novel will consider categories related to the consistent behaviors of narcissists, victims, enablers, pawns, and “externals.” Michael Geczi shows us that finding consistency in some characters is challenging as they seem to act randomly much of the time. A serial killer who murdered victims randomly actually had a method to his madness. However, his chaotic actions were externally determined. Oh what a tangled web persists when the serial killer is terminated and left out on a shoreline path. Great action-packed stand alone mystery novel (Serial Killer Anthology). Esta resenha foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Resenhistas do LibraryThing. A very unique take on the murder mystery genre. Chrissy Weeks is the seventh victim of Keith Victor, but mysteriously turns herself in at the police station seemingly in perfect health just as Victor's body is discovered across town. Weeks proves very arrogant in the proceeding questioning sessions and soon finds herself to be a person of interest. Did she kill Victor as she made her escape or is something more sinister going on? The story definitely keeps you guessing and the final reveal is certainly intriguing! However I will admit that the ending is a bit confusing as it does seem more like it's just on the side of unfinished than just an outright cliffhanger. Esta resenha foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Resenhistas do LibraryThing. This was an intriguing, somewhat confusing book with a surprise ending that I have no way of understanding. Presumably it will be explained in a later book. A serial killer is holding his victims, both men and women, for days to weeks before killing them. He has an accomplice, an illegal alien, and he uses this status as a hold over her. He seems to be able to kill with impunity and get rid of the bodies without leaving anything to implicate himself, until he unwittingly choses his final victim who is a match for him, both in intelligence and narcissism. The killer is killed, the victim, Christine Weeks is alive and deliberately misleading the police and the FBI, apparently for no other reason than that she can. It was an interesting premise for a novel; not the first time a victim has been able to kill his or her kidnapper, but with a very original twist. I enjoyed the novel; it was fast-paced and had enough to keep me interested throughout while never being completely convinced by it. The writing was generally good, but in certain places there was far too much telling of the background, the reader was being spoon fed with information the author felt we needed to know and seemingly couldn’t provide in any other way. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
