One might expect this to be a twisty, psychological thriller and while at times it does get disturbing, this is more of a (basic) detective's journey to solving a murder than a deep, dark tale about a serial killer on a rampage. There are certainly the elements that one would anticipate, but surprisingly, there is very little Hannnibal and some of the creative choices are either predictable or sometimes a bit silly - SPOILER ALERT - would a serial killer really be ultimately foiled by falling in love? And these shortcomings aren't helped by slightly elementary or unevolved prose.
