This book was more gritty and gruesome than I expected. It is riveting and it is well written, but there were some things I felt that could have been left out that did not add to the story. It is written from different points of view (mostly the surviving victim and the serial killer)and different places in time between 1929 and 1993. There were a few loose ends that weren't quite explained in my opinion. Still, overall, it wraps up well enough and it is definitely a page turner.
