When the Bough Breaks by Jonathan Kellerman

4.0

One of my many purchases in a secondhand bookshop; a purchase of a book by an author I hadn't even heard of. Now I'm really not sure why he seemed to have slipped under the radar all this time!

Fantastic writing style. Character development was on point. The story itself covers a number of dark + perverted subjects; there's also graphic violence. As someone who regularly reads this sort of genre/books containing disturbing subject matters, none of it fazed me. In fact, I was impressed with how well it was all put across + portrayed. My only slight issue is with the amount of characters involved; I did get a bit muddled with who everyone was, how they were relevant/connected, but that may well just be my dodgy brain.
