As I started reading this book, many questions arose and my curiosity was fueled by the potential events of the previous book in the series, although in general I understood what happened. From the prolog, I felt that this book would win me over.
The writing style was very reminiscent of Slaughter, in particular that the writer provides the reader with small pieces and little details about the people who make up the complete story. I was curious.
About a hundred pages before the end, I thought I had figured out who the mysterious killer behind all this was, though I hadn't found the links between some sub stories. Luckily I was wrong, otherwise I would be disappointed. Hulgar as a character irritated me in a ridiculous way, and this is evident in the final score of the book.
Overall, it's a book I really enjoyed. Many may disagree, but I personally support the idea that child molesters should be tortured in the most brutal way, as well as those who help "covering up" such cases.
