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!

The Slow Lane Walkers Club - Rosa Temple

  Buy Here This is my first book by Rosa Temple and it won't be my last.  I was a bit unsure when I started it. However I loved it.  Its not often I finish a book and end up hugging it because I loved it so much.  The characters were great, Hazel is amazing. She reminds me of an old family friend who never gives up no matter what. Daniel is a kind lad who I think is slightly misunderstood when he arrives back in Cornwall.  Their relationship is fantastic, one you can only dream about having with your grandmas friend.  This book is one big giant hug and it's exactly what I needed at the time of reading. Once you start you dont want to stop.  Best book of the year so far!

Mimic - Daniel Cole

  Buy Here Having previously read Daniel coles books I was looking forward to this stand alone novel. It packs a punch right from the word go and it doesn't let up throughout the book. So many murders and so many what ifs.... And what an earths?!  I liked Chambers and Winter as detectives and their relationship that they had. They never lost charm even if there was a 7 year break in the book for them. They picked up exactly where they left off.  The book was very clever in the way that the murders took part. It was all a work if art. And don't worry if you are like me and aren't sure what they are there are paintings in the book to help you incase you cannot visual it. Great read.

Listen here  This is my first Kate Bendelow book.  I have to say I throughly enjoyed it, the reader of this audiobook did a great job  and it really made the book for me. The voices were amazing and really allowed you to fine fine tiune the characters.  The book itself is the 2nd in a series, which you only noticed in a few parts.
