Despite this starting out a little slower than the last book, I thoroughly enjoyed this! Chris Carter's books are turning about to be some of my favorite thrillers because they have everything I love - grisly murders, off the wall killers, a detective that's willing to risk it all to solve the case, and a happy ending with justice served. Not to mention this book was chock full of some of the most original plot points I have ever read in a thriller. Robert Hunter as a character is so multi-faceted and I don't always agree with his decisions, but I always end up loving his commitment to saving people's lives and I can't wait to read more about the cases he solves!

Loved the characters and great plot will continue with the series
There s simply nothing else to say but AMAZING!!!!! i love this sort of thing and i find that Carter having previously worked in this area a massive benefit, it adds another dimension to the story. I love the cliff hangers that make you keep reading and i like the relationship between hunter and garcia.
I read this book second and i feel that you cam read these books in any order and still understand the characters.

The second book of the Robert Hunter series, and just as violent as the first. It seems like Chris Carter must take lessons from Stephen King to come up with some of his scenarios - they're pretty terrifying. This story fortifies an old theory of mine - if you want to make a villain more evil, just add in some good old time religion.
This book was very exciting, and hard to put down. My only disappointment was the introduction of psychic abilities from dreams to help solve the crime. I find that introducing this type of power in a serious story is a type of crutch in that it allows the author to solve any mystery by using the power that is not constrained by mere science or common sense. It's OK in a fantasy genre book, but a bit out of place in a serious mystery. But it's a minor quibble. I just pretend that it's possible, because... well, who knows what's possible?

Again, an interesting killer, but very little else. And the supernatural element was unnecessary.
The only function that Garcia seems to be fulfilling is the need to be rescued, and making questions with obvious answers. All. The fucking. Time.
The writing is still mediocre, filled with repetitive metaphors and yet... yes, I keep reading the damn thing *laughs* Addictive, that's for sure.
