This book was presented to me as a thrilling crime story. I admit, there are thrilling parts to the narrative, but it is more a police procedural crime novel. Our main actor is a failed novelist now working as the police detective in the small town of Granite Harbor. He still tries to do some work as a writer. He shares custody of his daughter with her rich mother, who lives in another small town close by.
Things are moving at a steady rate in town until a teenaged boy is killed and presented to the public in a frame. This upsets everybody because what kind of a madman would frame his victim? How can such a person live among them without showing this madness? It turns out this isn't a native crazy but one taught to the serial killer by a certifiably crazy man. Let's talk about generational madness. All the detecting in the world won't find it because the madman has incorporated it into his otherwise rational worldview.
I found the book fascinating. I actually read it faster than I expected. I highly recommend it to those of you who like crime novels.
I want to thank the publishers who gave me this book through their website. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book.
