“What a thoroughly great book this is.
I laughed many times out loud.
Liam and Aldo are best friends. Aldo is a true genius character which I’ll always remember. Set in modern days in Australia we follow the scrapes Aldo goes through, of which there are many, Liam also tells the story and bales him out when things go wrong.
If Toltz could bring Aldo into another novel I’d read it like a shot.
Highly recommended. Our book group scored it 7.5/10 I loved it and gave it 8.5/10

Score 8.5/10

Date read April 2016

“An early Dave Robicheaux novel and it won him an Edgar award.
In my view this is his best series, if you wanted to read them in order all the better but I haven’t and it matters not.
A well done thriller with lots of action and good writing. 7/10

“Not as well know as some of the big thriller writers from the US but in many ways better. His Prey series is top notch.
This is 24th in the Lucas Davenport series. I’ve read a few and fine to go out of series order.
There’s a serial killer on the loose… pacey 6/10
