Not believeable
Not a bad beginning but how on earth could an experienced therapist be so dim? Between him and his dozy sidekicks, this was more comedy than thriller and I found the whole scenario utterly ridiculous. I did try to take it seriously because I was hoping things might 'hot up' but for me, a thrilling read it was not....... but it might suit others so good luck with that!

Outstanding
This one led me on a merry dance, I shall not pretend that the first Harry Hope did not do the same but this one was a winding maze and a half.
Mysterious, violent and bloody at times, this is a thriller with a vengeance.
I recommend this one wholeheartedly to any fan of the genre.
