Review: Gripping if implausible serial killer novel
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 06 13, 2011
An unusual premise for a novel a serial killer selects a remote Northumberland village to totally wipe out.  More of a gory horror story than anything else the novel is relatively well written but the killer's motivations remain a total mystery other than an obsession with film noir.  Stuck with it to the end but ultimately unsatisfying.
