书籍介绍
Inside a Los Angeles church, on the altar steps, lies the blood-soaked, decapitated body of a priest. Carefully positioned, legs stretched out, arms crossed over the chest, the most horrifying thing of all is that the priest's head has been replaced by that of a dog. Later, the forensic team discover that, on the victim's chest, the figure 3 has been scrawled in blood. At first, Detective Robert Hunter believes that this is a ritualistic killing. But as more bodies surface, he is forced to reassess. All the victims died in the way they feared the most. Their worst nightmares have literally come true. But how could the killer have known? And what links these apparently random victims? Hunter finds himself on the trail of an elusive and sadistic killer, somone who apparently has the power to read his victims' minds. Someone who can sense what scares his victims the most. Someone who will stop at nothing to achieve his twisted aim.
用户评论
不要忽视书中营造的氛围,以及不同角色反复谈及的相同问题/事件。但相较The Crucifix Killer,在叙事上稍显逊色。
这本比第一本好看,而且杀人动机也很合理。但是有两个问题我很纳闷,具体看论坛,以免被剧透。
Robert Hunter #02 每次的案发现场太血腥了,枉我看过那么多罪案剧,还是被作者笔下的血腥死法给震撼到🤕️
(终于在我考完试这天看完了)作者是不是更擅长写女性victim受害的场景啊?看的这两本都是女性遇害场景让人不适……被害的这几个人的联系一被找出,作案动机就呼之欲出了。他们几个都曾经充满恶意,对其他人造成了不可逆的伤害。他们成年后或许悔恨过,所以有的人又极力成为善良的人,向他人散播善意。但他们曾经的所作所为在他人心里埋下了恶的种子,又一次次浇灌,结出的恶果几乎吞噬了他们所有人。Mollie这个角色让人好奇以后还会不会出现?
每次都被这个凶手的杀人手段所折服,这种死法也太吓人,特别是全身插满针,凶手也压根没猜到,但是Molly出现的意义是什么,不需要另外一个Slater啊,不喜欢超自然现象啊
相当不错的悬疑小说,特别是节奏。 我最近在同时看两本悬疑小说,一本是这个,另外一本是Stephen King的“The Institute”,分别是400多页和600页。Stephen King的那本也不是不好看,但真的就是节奏比较慢,我拖拖拉拉看到200多页,就开始看这本。这本一开始看就非常抓人,先给读者甩了几个非常血腥暴力的凶案现场,然后直接开始调查,完全没什么废话,感觉就是在看美剧的罪案剧,非常爽,一页一页勾着你看下去。非常适合冬夜深夜阅读。 我上当当翻了一下,好像没有这个作者作品的中译本,不知道是不是和血腥暴力描写比较多有关系。这个作者写各种凶案死法真的非常有想象力,我看书都会有身临其境之感。 虽然结尾略有点仓促,但是前面80%都很吸引人。这个系列的下一本书我准备好了!
