What is not to like? Almost a vigilante serial killer taking crude justice in his hands in a crime that the majority of times doesn't seems to be justice at all. Great book to read. Congrats.

I have read some of this author's previous work and I must admit that his writing style is not for me. His storylines are pretty good though and kept me turning the page. Thank you for the review.

This one sounds like just my sort of thriller! I have always been fascinated by the minds of serial killers and trying to understand their motivation for doing the terrible things they do. Will definitely be reading this one! Thanks for your informative review.

Being about sexual abuse, revenge, and investigation, this crime mystery seems engaging. I'd like to read it to know the full story about the priests and the protagonist. Thanks for the interesting review.

Though I am not the fan of murder mysteries, but I am glad that the author omnisciently depicts the feelings of the protagonist character. Good review.

Thanks for the wonderful review. It has expounded very a lot on the content of the book. It seems the book is very interesting. I like the fact that it is interesting and captivating to the very end. I wonder what reasons the priests had for molesting the young boys.

Imagine being in the mind of a serial killer. Knowing how they think, how they make their mark. It makes you hate them and understand them at the same time.

This is my type of genre to read and I was drawn in by the title and cover page without even reading what it was about! Thanks for the great review, it is good to know that it can be a stand-alone book and I am looking forward to reading it.

I never imagined I would enjoy reading a crime story with gruesome details, but the review of this one prompts me to do so. To delve into the mind of a serial killer while at it sure sounds like a delight.

I'm definitely intrigued! I've always had a thing for psychological thrillers. The story line you've described here reminded me of the 2007 movie ''Mr. Brooks'', to an extent. This is going into my Want to Read shelf!!

I reviewed the original book Serial K, but I had no idea someone had reviewed the second book until it came up as the Book of the Day so I read your review out of curiosity. In the first book, Breedlove was all about becoming a famous serial killer, so it's interesting that in this he turns to revenge.

I might give this book a try one day. While I had some issues with Serial K I did find it an enjoyable read. Since you liked this book I would recommend the first to you.
