The story in the novel deals with a serial killer on a wild rampage that amasses an unbelievable amount of victims, with the main story dealing with the villain's process in getting revenge upon a former best friend.
Reading this novel was sort of like reading a novel that was one story wanting to be another. To me, the violence was graphically gratuitous and the sexuality crude, which took away from the overall impact the novel could have been.
Now, the protagonist and story were both interesting and to me, if the violence and sexuality in the novel had been handled a bit differently, this would have been a very different novel.
There are also blatant factual errors in the novel which sort of leaves one thinking an author should write what they know (for example, Glock handguns do not have a safety that can be switched to fire or safe, nor do they have a traditional hammer that can be cocked).
It is a very graphic and dark novel. Very. (
