Stumbling over a trail of horribly defiled bodies, Quinn can't seem to catch up to the killer - because the killer is about to catch up to him.

"A great addition to the "Kill" series. Another twisted plot that kept me guessing. I had thought that Zoe the psychoanalyst would have been in on the murders somehow but I was wrong. I loved the ending and how it leaves things hanging about the realtionship with Pearl. "

— Jadine, 2/14/2014" Right now I'm just trying to get thru the book. Way to many characters and subplots to keep track of...but much like any book I start, I'll finish this one. Not one I'll recommend. "
— Roxanne, 2/13/2014" I have really enjoyed the Frank Quinn Series from John Lutz, but this one had too many story lines that made it confusing. Most of it tied up nicely in a frantic finish , however the Hobbs storyline just didn't make sense, and didn't really have a place in the book. Looking forward to the next one though! "
— DJ, 1/26/2014" Way too wordy. The action parts of the book were intruiging and enjoyable but they were padded with too much fluff between. "
— Matthew, 1/19/2014" started of nicely with suspence and an intricate plot but the writer never kept the peaked suspence. readible "
— Irene, 1/9/2014" It was pretty good. After Lawrence Norfolk, I needed something very focused. "
— Adam, 1/9/2014" The three "Kill" books were very good chilling reads. I liked the main characters a lot and hope they appear again. "
— Paulette, 12/31/2013" I enjoyed this book with Frank Quinn. The plots moves along and even though there are subplots and many characters I found it held my attention to the end. "
— Kay, 12/26/2013" This book was a free one I downloaded to my Kindle. It was okay, but some of the murder scenes were too graphic and morbid for my taste. "
— Susan, 12/8/2013" His books are always good thrillers. "
— Blakely, 12/5/2013" This series by John Lutz takes the reader into the life of detectives who specialize in finding serial killers. Pretty bloody in the details, but I've read a couple because I was focusing on the detectives and their lives. "
— Mary, 11/28/2013" Am Nutz for Lutz. "
— Tim, 7/15/2013" Another new author for me, John Lutz writes a good murder mystery. I found the extremely large number of characters and similar character names confusing for awhile, but the plot is intricately drawn with constant plot twists. "
— Joan, 6/25/2013" Realy like Lutz. Mystery and great story telling. "
— Carol, 5/3/2013" Too many story lines, not enough wrap up. "

— Dave, 10/14/2012" I got this book as a free Kindle download and feel like that was still too much to pay. Pure garbage and I'm a little embarrassed I actually read the whole book. "

— Jenn, 9/20/2012" The main story was good but there were a couple side stories that didn't need to be in the book, just made it confusing. "
— Gidget, 7/18/2012" Well-written thriller with very good characters and a good story. Unfortunately, the ending was not very well pulled together, keeping it from getting four stars. Still a good read. "
— Thomas, 1/15/2012" I really wish I had read the first in the series first, it would have answered some of the questions I felt got unanswered in other books. The author has good ideas, I just think he needs a better editor. "
