Five Minutes Alone by Paul Cleave

3.0

This book follows immediately after "Joe Victim". The police are after a man who is giving survivors their five minutes alone with the perpetrator against themselves or a loved one. This is the last book in the series.

This book just didn't feel up to the standard of the others. It wasn't gruesome at all, which is prevalent in the other books. This book is the last in the series and as such brings up events from the previous books and puts to rest any loose ends. The killings were not that exciting. The killer is revealed early but it was easy to guess the identity almost from the get-go. I didn't feel any satisfaction as to what became of Tate and Schroder. Overall, the book was an easy read and had mention of many previous characters. The story was interesting as everything was pulled together by the story's end. A decent read but I wasn't satisfied with the series' wrap-up.
