If you like being scared--particularly if you are a single woman who lives alone--then you cannot get much scarier than this!
Great book; am now a new fan.

I could not put this page-turner, great thriller down. John Lutz is tops for this type of suspense.
I thought that this book was a good story even though it does start out a bit slow. Fortunately, it's the kind of slow that is still interesting enough to make you want to continue reading the book because you know that eventually it is going to pick up.
At times, especially early on, the story does get a little crazy because there is so much jumping around between various characters in the story, but once you've figured out who's who and what's going on with them, it shouldn't be a problem.
I did get annoyed that a major part of the plot became a little too "coincidental" that two people who knew each other just happened to live in the same area (the killer and another character), so I did find that a little lame because it's used to make the story longer than necessary. Of course this could've been a ploy so that the author could meet his page goal.
Overall, I think I'll keep reading this author, but this book's events are pretty predictable, so I didn't find it very suspenseful.

Lutz is up there with Patterson's Alex Cross series.
This was disturbing in the sense to think someone could do harmful things to a child then have that child turn out to be creepy and this one was creepy.
