Hunting Evil





HE'S THE MOST DANGEROUS KILLER THE FBI HAS EVER KNOWN. AND HE'S JUST ESCAPED.
As roommates, they met for the first time in college. Two of the brightest minds ever to graduate from Stamford Psychology University.
As adversaries, they met again in Quantico, Virginia.
Robert Hunter had become the head of the LAPD’s Ultra Violent Crimes Unit. Lucien Folter had become the most prolific and dangerous serial killer the FBI had ever encountered.
Now, after spending three and a half years locked in solitary confinement, Lucien has finally managed to break free. And he’s angry.
For the past three and a half years, Lucien has thought of nothing else but vengeance. The person responsible for locking him away has to pay, he has to suffer.
That person ... is Robert Hunter. And now it is finally time to execute the plan.

Review
For fans who love Chris Carter, I am sure like me you could not wait to have him back.  He does not disappoint.
This is a sequel to his book An Evil Mind. This is the first sequel Chris has done, although you can read this as a stand alone, I would personally suggest that you read An Evil Mind first. I say this purely because it will give you feel of how sick and twisted Lucien actually is! In my eyes the devil personified. What a character, lets just hope there is no one out there like that in real life.
Although this book was missing a lot of the gore I normally expect from Chirs' books it was put to us as readers in a different way. Mind games being one! I didn't know what to expect when picking this up, you never know what direction Chris is going to take you.
Normally it is all blood and gore, yet the mind games I mentioned comes in to play. You find yourself being drawn in and playing along. If you are like me, getting it wrong!
I enjoyed this book, and for me it was nice to see Garcia stepping up and out of the shadowing role to kick some arse. It was nice see Hunter have some flaws, it shows that yes, hw is amazing at what he does, however he is only human.
Chris keeps you guessing right until the end and the short sharp chapters do nothing but draw you in. Makes you want to keep reading. Gripping you in and not letting you leave until you have finished!

Let it Snow - Sue Moorcroft

Buy Here I have to be honest and say I am only 70% through this book, so I will review up to where I have read. When I started this book I was a bit unsure where it was going or what it was doing. However it was soon explained as the characters and the plot started to thicken.  I am really enjoying getting to know the characters and going through their life with them. Highs and low. Of course as always some are more liked than others, but I'll let you make your own judgement on that!  Sue really does describe the atmosphere and the locations so that you can see them and imagine you are there too. It's making me want to wrap up warm and go and play in the snow.  I am excited to read the rest of the book and hopefully my predictions are correct.... Or not!
