Imagine a madman kidnapping a serial killer. There, you have the main plot of this book.
Atria, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, sent me a copy of the egalley of this book for review (thank you). It's being published in July, so you'll be able to pick up a copy shortly.
This story is full of perverted characters. No one is what I consider normal. At times the story gets so intense you want to set the book down and take a breather, but you also want to know what's going to happen next, so you don't.
The collector is the madman. He's looking for a friend, a co-conspirator, and he has been following the professor. He also knows some of the professor's secrets.
The professor himself is a sick man. He kidnaps, rapes and eventually kills young women he desires. He's only let one escape and she harmed him in return. Now she seems to have become a killer herself.
The man trying to find the latest kidnap victim before it's too late used to be a cop, but lost his job. He's a murderer, too. He killed the man who killed his daughter and put his wife in a nursing home she may never leave.
This is a book of horrors, but it is all possible. Don't read it if you don't like violence or have a soft heart. But if you like reading books that will twist your mind, this is just the book for you.
Happy reading!
