Rating: 3 stars
Summary: worth a quick read
Review: The first thing I noticed when I received this book was how short it was - just over 200 pages. Now, I know the quality of a work can't be determined by size, but Thomas Sullivan really didn't give himself enough room to pull off what he was trying to do. All of the characters (including the protagonist) were underdeveloped and the whole plot seemed rushed - 12 murders in 200 pages. It's a quick and easy read, not to mention entertaining, but I wouldn't recommend buying the Hardcover version.

One thing I did like about the novel was Sullivan's style. His writing is very concise and his descriptions are full of wonderful similes. I only wish he had put more effort into the work as it had potential to be great.

Review: This was an "on the edge of your seat can't put it down" book!! I haven't enjoyed one like this since The Shining!
