" Definitely a page turner! Poe's "Ligeia" is one of the earliest and best serial killer stories. I could definitely see a connection when I was reading this novel, but I doubt that it was intentional. As others have said, at times it is difficult to figure out what is going on if you have not read the first book in the series. By the end I had it figured out, but now I do not know if the first book is spoiled for me. Some have said it seemed too American, but I did not see that. The setting was British, but maybe not the quaint setting some might want. "
