This book crosses the genres in a really good way. It's part thriller, part mystery, definitely deeply into the supernatural and it does them all well. Three people are being stalked and threatened with death. The killer had previously killed members of their families and they find themselves targeted in the same way. It's very tense and an exciting read. I got into the book quickly and enjoyed reading it.I found the writing good and engaging, the dialogue well observed and believable. The only down side for me was that I could see why one person was the target of this killer but I couldn't see the connection with the other two families. It seemed a bit arbitrary and I would have liked to see them connected in some way to the 'import from China' (trying not to give away plot!) The writing was well crafted, effective and the ending was exciting and bitter-sweet. A very good read!
