SKINNER: Thirty-five years. Four killers. One city. by Nathan Jones, Nathan Jones

sarahmcknightwrites's review

5.0

The incredible tale of a hunt for a madman with an unexpected twist. There are a lot of things to love about Jones' second book: the main character enduring bipolar disorder and severe seasonal depression in an accurate and realistic manner, the mystery behind who Skinner really is, and the way everything comes together. I also have to give a special nod to Jones' flawless ability to integrate the reader into a futuristic world. While this book takes place around 30 years in the future, the technological advancements are described in an almost nonchalant manner, but still in a way that the reader can understand what everything is and what it is used for. That takes serious skill.

While gruesome, there was nothing I found too over the top or nasty, and I enjoyed riding along with Dayne as he hunted down Skinner's true identity. Highly recommend this dark, twisted novel.
