Review:
This is a different kind of thriller/horror book.
An American profiler and psychologist is called in to help aid when a high profile abduction of Elspeth occurs after a murder of a similiar woman. Along with Detective Baarda she and he follow the abductions of a 12 year old child and of a parapalegic man. Trying to figure out the end game is all they can try to do and the twist and the turns of the case is absolutely horrifying. Fergus abducts them all to try to create the family he never had, not long after his introduction the reader can realize that he is not only physically but also mentally sick. He is so sick and twisted it's not even funny.
This book follows the investigation and also gives an insight into Fergus's mind, and what an adventure that was. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys psychological thrillers as this is one that you are hooked from the beginning to see what other crazy thoughts are going to occur.
I really enjoyed the different perspectives and I loved Connie. She looked at the world in a different view and because of that different perspective she was able to understand Fergus and what he was actually capable of. This type of book is like someone's worst nightmare because Fergus literally the boogeyman he comes and takes his victims and then he tries to basically make them play house with him all the while the victims are terrified. Such a good book! I definitely recommend it!
