This is a fiendish story. If tales of horror fascinate you, this is for you. I could barely get past the prologue but something kept me captivated and I read it in one sitting, as I couldn't bear the thought of going to sleep before the culprit was caught.What is clever about this book is that the writer takes you to the brink of nausea and suddenly breaks the chapter and injects you with some adrenalin, by taking you to the other extreme where a detective and his nephew are relentless in their pursuit of the killer; thus providing some temporary relief, only to take you back abruptly to the scene of the horrors where your revulsion is renewed.The one and only other book of horrors I've read a lifetime ago was one of Steven King's. Where horror goes, this is a good match, and thus deserves a 5 star.
