This novella is a very interesting and new twist on a serial killer, that I have ever read before..The title of the book, "Kutter" could lead you to believe many things...Such as, a name the cops or FBI profilers usually give to an elusive, vicious murderer with a distinct pattern...But half way through the story it turns out to be something completely different all together...Perfect detailed characterization of a pure psychopath with the constant need to kill..You have just enough blood and gore..It starts out with a slow build of suspense because you are just getting to meet and know Charlie Stanlon, cold and heartless in the middle of one of his kills..Yet, his outside personna he is friendly with a little bit of sarcastic humor..Until someday, they all become too cocky and make that little mistake..It could be just a tiny alter in pattern or quick sloppy job..Towards the very intense, shocking ending I was almost heartbroken..How ironic that the cause of Charlie's downfall maybe because of his growing attachment to Man's Best Friend"....Serial Killers' are not supposed to understand love or any emotions..That's what makes them so good at what they do best...
