Everyone looks at art different. The newest serial killer in LA is sculpting objects. Hunter and Garcia are on the case. The DA thinks they need help on this case, so he assigns Alice Beaumont to help them. Hunter knows that the killer is trying to tell them something from the sculptures, but he can't figure it all out.
As I said, if you have a squeamish stomach, skip this book. It is not for the faint of heart. Carter continues to develop these characters. This is the fourth book in the series and the keep getting better. I enjoy them because I try (notice I said try) to figure out the killer before Hunter and Garcia do. I have to say that this one took me by surprise. I never noticed any evidence as to who it was. Love, love books like this.
😊 Happy Reading 🙃

Throughout this book I had different ideas on why the killer was doing what they were doing, and each time I was wrong. The scenes were so gruesome and there was one quote I will never get out of my head...
“Good job you didn’t turn on the lights”
Super creepy! I was so tempted to leave my Christmas tree lights on that night.
As the story progressed I was trying to workout/figure out how the victims were linked and I still got it wrong. So when we got to the part where the killer was revealed I was so shocked! I never imagined this person to be the killer, this person didn’t even come to mind so I was really speechless.
I really enjoyed the ending and I can’t wait for another Robert Hunter investigation! x
