I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga
Mar. 4th, 2012 11:41 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
You’re fifteen years old and your father is the most notorious serial killer America has ever produced.
He brought you up. Taught you everything he knows. Everyone in your ordinary American town knows who you are. So even though Dear Old Dad is safely behind bars, when the killing starts all over again you are the first person the police come to see …
They don’t know whether it’s nature or nurture. And neither do you …
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Barry Lyga’s novel is a well-written, well-plotted serial killer crime thriller that’s DEXTER meets SILENCE OF THE LAMBS and has the kind of cross-over appeal that will draw in grown up and young adult readers. It’s entertaining from start to finish and although it’s obviously a dark book, it’s not excessively gory. I really hope that there will be a sequel soon.
I HUNT KILLERS will be released in the UK on 12th April 2012. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the ARC of this book.
