The concept starts out strong--a middle-aged man forced to face his father's mortality via murder both past and present. This plot carries the book in spite of a forgettable writing style for the first 2/3 of the book. However, at that point, the plot takes a nose-dive into typical, cliched territory that read as if it was placed in the novel for a gross-out, shock factor, rather than as a metaphor for....anything really. A disappointing ending to what could have been a memorable book.

I recommend it to big thriller fans looking for an easy beach read.
