Fear by Dirk Kurbjuweit
3.0

My mission this year is to read slower. This book was perfect for that. A slow burn with themes close to my heart as a former student of criminology and criminal case analyst. I enjoyed the differences in the pace, pattern and rhythm of the language that was likely the result of the translation from German to English - That said, I think there was something lost in translation when it came to building tension and sending the ripples of fear up spines as promised by the cover and premise.
