mimiathereader 's review for:

The Blackhouse by Peter May
3.0

I didn’t like it for the most part but I think I actually liked the ending? I’m not sure but I couldn’t give the two stars I would give the rest of the story because of the ending.
This is not too mysterious or scary. Most of all it’s gory (see the post-mortem scene and some other descriptions completely unnecessary). Besides the fact this is all about the main character’s life and not the mystery. Actually I feel he forgot what he was investigating in the middle of the book and just wanted to go and see old friends.
That’s it. I have some problems with what this book claims to be but I still listened to the end to know what actually had happened.
Not for the faintest of hearth (with the graphic depictions of murder and the language (which I know some people have problems with)).
