This book was suspenseful and disturbing at times. The writing was not my favorite, it was almost choppy at times. I was sometimes a bit lost as to what was going on. However, there were times when the scenes were vivid. Will Graham was an interesting character, along with his relationship with Jack Crawford. I wish we could have seen more Hannibal Lecter. He is a very intriguing character that I look forward to reading more of.
