A photograph of him as a young man. But on leaving his house, he is immediately snatched by a vicious, trained killer and bundled into the back of a waiting car.

I picked this book out pretty randomly. I had to go to the library for Killing Floor, and when I go pick up something specific I like to pick something random off the shelf near it, preferably something from an author I haven’t read. This was pretty good. The story line was… different. Not a traditional mystery. The only problem I really had with is was that I didn’t care for the way Grace figures everything out at the end. It’s just too tidy. I think the book would have been better without the last chapter.
