Die zunächst scheinbar völlig zusammenhangslosen Morde ließen mich bis zuletzt über das Motiv des Täters, der sich selbst ‚Mentor’ nennt, grübeln und die Auflösung am Ende war wie immer grandios durchdacht und unvorhersehbar. Galėčiau plepėti apie šią knygą daug, tačiau negaliu atskleisti Jums daugiau detalių, jog nesugadinti skaitymo malonumo. Estuvo interesante y los primeros asesinatos bastante espectaculares, aunque la parte final en el avión se me hizo algo larga (mucho bla bla). Cons - Suddenly Hunter getting dream and that connect with the next sequence, his close connection with Air marshal remembering at the time when it was required. The opening chapter of this was so creepy I went my first time ever live on Tiktok (smbslt) as I was reading it home alone.

That in no way takes away from the brilliance of the writing and storytelling and for once, when Hunters seasoned partner Garcia utters his “you’ve gotta be kidding me “ type comments that frequent all these books has a case in point! This is the work of a psychopath and someone devoid of human emotion, remorse, or empathy, not the work of a vengeful person no matter what drove them to seek retribution.There are some strong themes of suicide and mental health throughout the story and I think that the author did a wonderful job with it. Jeigu iki šiol skaitydama jo knygas jausdavau pašiurpusią odą, tai ši knyga tiesiogine prasme supurtė ir sukrėtė.

Detective Robert Hunter has long been a valuable member of the Ultra Violent Crime division of LAPD Homicide, investigating the most heinous crimes committed. The script is drawn according to the same sceme, only the colours are slightly thickened🥺 and I was expecting some new ideas! I am not going to tell anything about the story as murders are starting from the beginning of the book and revealing anything will be spoiling the pleasure of reading the book. Instead, he knows he is dealing with a killer who is tremendously disciplined, systematic, creative, and patient. Um die persönliche Entwicklung der beiden Ermittler nachvollziehen zu können, wäre es in meinen Augen jedoch ratsam, bei Band 1 zu beginnen und die Reihe chronologisch zu lesen.But this discovery does more than just link the two killings – it suggests that this is the work of a serial murderer. I’m kinda sad that I’ve come to the end of the series(as of this date) but I will wait very impatiently for book 13.

He always leaves part of a poem with the body and in a day or two after the murder, sends a video message to the victim's loved one. Als eine zweite Frau grausam umgebracht wird, fragen Hunter und Garcia sich, wie viele Gedichte dieser Serienkiller noch schreiben wird. Even serial killers would stop short at this level of depravity and torturous methods, even if it had some dark meaning.The killer is brutal, the victims are very different from each other and how they are killed yet Garcia and Hunter know they are related because of something the killer leaves at each scene. It is only when taking a step back and syntheising the evidence that Detective Hunter makes a possible connection, though this is not guaranteed to come to fruition. After graduating from high school, I moved to the USA where I studied psychology with specialization in criminal behaviour. If you love your crime thrillers to be of the cosy type, then this is definitely not the book for you. Nors šis detektyvas yra matęs daug, tačiau su tokiu makabrišku nusikaltimu jam dar susidurti neteko.
