David Hunter is a bit of a bland main character, the forensic anthropology stuff was interesting but didn't really play that big of a role in the plot and the unmasking of the killer. Also the main plotwist was kinda predictable. That aside "The Chemistry of Death" was overall a solid and enjoyable thriller with an intense and gripping finale.

Am Anfang dauert es ziemlich lange, bis es richtig losgeht. Zum Ende hin wird es aber sehr gut

Książkę czyta się bardzo dobrze. Wciąga. Brakowało jednak tej satysfakcji, która następuje gdy zagadka zostaje rozwiązana. O zanizeniu oceny zadecydowały dosłownie 3 ostatnie rozdziały.

Sehr spannend, gute Atmosphäre. Besonders, wenn man das Buch -wie ich- während eines heißen Sommers liest, denn die Geschichte spielt während eines solchen.
