You might as well know this going in: Lawrence Block's new novel is not for everyone. It's recounted in journal form by its protagonist, and begins when he walks into a roadhouse outside of Bakersfield, California, and walks out with a woman. And rapes and murders her. But, um, not in that order.

Right. But it's what he does with the rest of his life that's really interesting....

I liked the writing style, the story. But I wish it was more brutal.
I recommend it to readers who like psychological thrillers, spiced with brutal sexual subjects.

overall a good listen. A man reacts on his impulse and trys to keep it at bay. it's a story you could read or hear about in the news. how years later because of DNA there past acts catch up with them.

Took me forever to get through this. “Action” in the first chapter and then just a bunch of talking.

Boring

I could not wait to read a new book by master Lawrence Block...but this is not the one, cannot be the one . Weak story plot, weak charaxters, excessive violence and creepy sex. Master Block where are you ?

Where is Matthew Scudder ?

Didn’t finish and honestly didn’t get past the first couple chapters. Read some good reviews so probably just a matter of “not my thing”.

DNF
