A Gripping Thriller: The Executioner by Chris Carter
Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)
Chris Carter's The Executioner is a suspenseful and captivating crime thriller that had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. As a fan of Carter's previous work, I found myself drawn into this book even more than its predecessor, The Crucifix Killer. It is a testament to Carter's skill as a writer that he manages to maintain a high level of tension and excitement throughout the story.
One of the aspects that I found particularly compelling about The Executioner was the way Carter weaved multiple subplots into the main narrative. These additional storylines added depth to the overall plot and kept me guessing as to how they would eventually intersect. Carter masterfully connects the dots, leaving no loose ends and creating a cohesive and engrossing read.
A notable addition in The Executioner is the inclusion of a psychic/empath character, which added an intriguing twist to the story. This character's unique abilities brought a fresh and captivating element to the investigation, allowing for a different perspective on the crimes. The exploration of the psychic realm was skillfully executed, adding an extra layer of complexity and making the narrative even more intriguing.
Carter's writing style is fast-paced and filled with suspense, making it almost impossible to put the book down. The author has a knack for crafting vivid descriptions that allow readers to visualize the scenes with remarkable clarity. The attention to detail in the crime scenes and investigative procedures adds authenticity to the story, immersing readers in the world of the characters.
While The Executioner is a standalone novel, readers familiar with Carter's previous works will appreciate the recurring protagonist, Detective Robert Hunter. Hunter's character is well-developed, and his dedication and determination shine through as he works tirelessly to solve the case. The author adeptly explores Hunter's personal struggles, making him a relatable and multi-dimensional character.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed reading The Executioner. Chris Carter has once again proven himself as a master of the crime thriller genre. The intricate subplots, the inclusion of a psychic character, and the unrelenting pace of the story kept me engrossed until the final page. If you're a fan of suspenseful and gripping novels, The Executioner is definitely worth a read.

Druhý díl a zase super. Myšlenka vraha, který své oběti popravuje způsobem, z něhož mají největší strach, je parádní. Hunter i Gabriel jsou pořád sympaťáci, děj opět čtivý a svižný, nemám co vyčíst. Možná jsem trochu bojovala s přijetím postavy Mollie, tedy spíš nového aspektu, který do knihy přinesla, ale nakonec jsem si řekla.. proč ne. Za mě spokojenost a těším se, co bude v dalším díle.
