Helpful Score: 1
I found this in a used book store and decided to pick it up because of rave reviews from my book group PBT on Shelfari. Wow, they were right! For a debut it was amazingly polished and now I think I have another favorite author and several books to add to Mt. TBR. A serial killer is loose in Minneapolis, arranging his first two victims in the same manner as those in a soon-to-be released video game from the software company Monkeewrench. The five friends who created the game are worried - not only will this potentially destroy their company, but they all have a secret past that may be related - do they tell the police and endanger themselves again? There are 18 more murders in the game...
Written by a mother-daughter team, this thriller is an excellent mystery packed with suspense and great characters. The two separate storylines are developed and eventually converged expertly, the sick mind of the killer all too believable, the horror and fear of the suspects palpable. I was pleased to have my suspicion of the identity of the killer turn out to be correct, but the jaw-dropping double twist in the end caught me totally by surprise. I hope the rest of the series turns out to be just as good!
