3.0

This book follows an investigation into a serial killer who is murdering his victims after sending them a little white book.  I felt that this book had an original storyline, and I couldn’t guess how the book was going to play out at times!  However, the book did seem far-fetched and very drawn out which mean it lost its appeal for me.

There was a lot of characters within the book and I thought that some of them didn’t actually add anything to the story!  I really did not see the need for some chapters to be told by the sister of one of the characters, Charlie.  I thought I must have been missing something but I think it was just a thread that was not needed! 

When I started reading this, I had high hopes but these dwindled the further I got into the book!  I give this book three out of five stars.
