review 1: I have to pace myself with thrillers. I can only read or listen to one every so often. Some can leave me with a headache from the eye-rolling with the portrayal of the serial killer's MO and the pursuing agents/cops following the clues and grudgingly falling in love (since it's usually a hot FBI agen and the rogue hottie and gruff police detective of interchangeable sexes)....Then there's the thriller with a scary believable serial scary and the detective who follows all the clues and sometimes gets it wrong. That's this thriller with Detective Superintendent Grace. The clues sometimes lead him and his team astray. He has to follow each one though. The serial scary is a serial rapist with a high-dollar shoe fetish. It's creepy and quick-turn-the-page paced. I need to add m... moreore of this series to my WWBL.
review 2: This is a larger book than the previous ones I have read featuring Roy Grace and while it was a pleasant read it wasn't as gripping as I would have hoped. The more recent books of this series I've found to be a bit slow and this was the slowest so far and at almost twice the size of some of his books, I did find myself fast reading in places.The book started well and then the last quarter was good as we started to narrow down the suspects and look for a conclusion as to who was guilty and was it one man of two? The middle part was less engaging.I live in Brighton and enjoy the local settings, which are all very real and I will read the rest of the books in the series because I want to know what happened to his wife! I would strongly recommend you only read this if you have read the earlier books in the series featuring Roy Grace. less
