Thoughts
Ultimately, this book kept me thinking the whole way through. Even though it was a topic that I had never read about, it turned out to be very interesting. I imagined how Jazz must have been conflicted knowing that he knew how to solve the case from his fathers past history. Jazz also must have been trying to suppress the feelings that he had in his genes from his father. Jazz used his knowledge to help solve a case, while his father used his knowledge to kill people. The contrast between the two kept me wanting to read this book. I was curious to see if Jazz would ever crack and turn into what his father was.

I agree with your idea about the book being interesting. Like you said, I also was very unsure about this book because I do not typically read mystery novels. Despite my concerns this book ended up being a suspenseful thriller which made me think a lot and offer me a different insight on serial killings.
