Lou Ford is the deputy sheriff of a small town in Texas. The worst thing most people can say against him is that he's a little slow and a little boring. But, then, most people don't know about the sickness--the sickness that almost got Lou put away when he was younger. The sickness that is about to surface again.

Pretty good view inside the mind of a killer, but the climax and reveal were a little weak.
A chilling, dark and disturbing tale of a very disturbed individual. A fantastic and thought provoking read. Highly recommended.
This was really good. A very quick read. From the way some people talked about it, I expected it to be a lot more graphic than what it was, but I suppose when it was originally released it was that era's AMERICAN PSYCHO, basically. Very good crime noir here, though. You know the writer has skill when you're rooting for the crazy murderer. The ending was a bit rushed, though. Kind of left me disappointed there once it was all over. But maybe I'm just greedy. I did enjoy the way the author tied each plot string together.
