Jeffery Deaver wrote an incredible plot twist. I loved how the suspense never ended while managing to make it feel high stakes the entire time. I also like the killer’s creativity and how well the author is able to leave a trail of evidence for the characters to follow. Giving the detective only a small pile of dirt from the bottom of a boot is practically nothing clue-wise. To show a believable narrative analyzing and understanding such little evidence is incredible and makes the hunt so much more interesting. I love books that really feel well researched. I wouldn't know if it's accurate, but it feels science-y enough for me.
