Sobre aquest llibre
'ONE OF THE BEST THRILLER WRITERS WORKING TODAY' LEE CHILD
THEY'RE DYING TO MEET HIM . . .
_______
The discovery of a body in Boston harbor has crime scene investigator Darby McCormick looking into an almost identical case: both were female students, abducted months earlier, each carrying a Virgin Mary figurine.
It's a troubling mystery that suddenly turns desperate when a third girl goes missing.
But when Darby makes a breakthrough, she crosses paths with Malcolm Fletcher. Malcolm used to be an FBI agent, but now he's gone off the rails, and is on the FBI's Most Wanted List. Darby knows she should turn him in - but Malcolm insists he's on the trail of the killer she's hunting.
Should she trust him, or turn him in?
And can either of them stop the killer before they strike again . . .
_______

Me ha gustado la trama de la novela, pero tengo que reconocer que ha habido partes del libro que se me han hecho un poco pesadas y lentas porque el personaje de la doctora estaba muy introspectivo con ella misma y al asesino en serie le pasaba otro tanto, así que entre los dos han logrado ese efecto de que el libro en algunas partes se hiciera lento y pesado. Como ya dije la trama de la novela en general me ha gustado mucho y está bien narrado, las escenas bien hilvanadas unas con otras, por lo que al final he decidido ponerle cuatro estrellas. Lo recomiendo, pero a lectores a los que les guste la novela negra y los procedimientos policiales.
