After spending a few months with the classics (Henry James, Joseph Conrad, Herman Melville) I needed a break - and turned to thrillers for something completely different.
Just finished "Heartsick" by Chelsea Cain - touted as the worthy successor to the Hannibal Lector/Clarice pairing - and I have to agree. A fresh entry into the serial killer genre - with a truly fascinating totally evil psychopathic intelligent female serial killer. And a battered cop that may or may not be able to cope with her.
