“Not too impressed. Working on reading the series with a friend. Dective Cross. I started with the first one because I started reading another book in the series and it seemed good, but kept talking about previous exploits. So why not start at the beginning?”

    “If you even remotely enjoyed the film adaptation of this book, you will love this book completely. It puts the movie to shame! Gary Sonejey (or however it is spelled!) is one of Cross' most notorious killers, and he always seems to slip out of the police's grasps. A must read”
