About this listen

When his own goddaughter becomes the latest victim of a serial killer wielding an ice pick, New York City Detective Frank Janek knows he must get inside the mind of a serial killer to locate this monster.

Few masters of the thriller genre are more psychologically subtle than Bayer. But the characters in Wallflower sink to lower levels of abjection than his other stories. The antagonists are unbearably pathetic, and will make you long for the gleefully wicked villains of some of his other novels. Still, the plot is as engrossing, the writing as sharp and observant, and the scenery as well described as ever.

Perverse suspense that holds your attention throughout.

Jeffrey Kafer did a great job narrating and bringing the characters to life.
