A perfectly executed, creeping, suspenseful sort of thriller
Even better than I was expecting. Just a perfectly executed, creeping, suspenseful sort of thriller. I was completely taken in with the way the story was constructed--weaving in and out of Paul's memories. The slow reveal of his past and the horrifying details of the murder of one of his friends worked really well for me, when a lot of stories that flip between past and present constantly don't.
I wasn't especially looking forward to reading "The Shadows," needed to be in the right head space for it, but when that time finally came I blew through this book in a few sittings. I never got around to reading "The Whisper Man," and it was just chance that I read this one first, but I'm definitely looking forward to it now!
