Review of The Closer (Mass Market Paperback)

This book seems like the movie The Punisher, at first.But the more you delve into the book, the more mysterious it becomes.I don't want to give a full synopsis of the book and the plot; you can read that for yourself on the description section.

Instead, I'll tell you why I liked this book.
- It seemed familiar, yet unique; reminiscent of The Punisher movie, yet totally new
- It was brilliantly written, with enough suspense to keep you interested from cover to cover
- It was creepy, sort of like the aftermath of a car wreck that you don't want to see, yet you're curious about
- It was long enough to be a good value, but not too long so as to be boring

If you liked books like Red Dragon or The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris, you'll love this one.

Product Description

MADNESS
