Devon Walker, a homicide detective, is your typical modern, hard-working man who is married to his job- already divorced with three kids. Just as you expect he would be able to give his family proper attention, guess what happens? The state college football team begins to turn up dead everywhere. Bodies are found gruesomely murdered, presumably by the man called "the Card Counter."Kipling kept my attention straight from the get-go. I love a good murder story, especially the type where the media has given the killer a nickname. I'm a sucker for it, I admit. Green River Killer, Zodiac Killer, Card Counter...it's just too deliciously tempting. Kipling presents us and Walker with a puzzle to solve under pressure, while thing get more out of control and bizarre. "The Card Counter" was extremely entertaining and engaging and it kept me on the edge of my seat. I'm a bit embarrassed to say that I read it in one sitting...all the way until dawn! Whoops! I just couldn't put it down!True crime fans taking a break from true crime books and anyone who enjoys suspense/crime thrillers would enjoy this book. Happy reading!
