“The Killer Is Dying” intertwines the stories of three persons: a killer for hire, a detective whose wife is dying and a boy living by himself after his parents left.

The three characters are linked but they never meet. The idea of the book was really interesting and could have given a great book.

Sadly, that's not what happened.. At the start of each chapter it was often confusing and hard to distinguish the character it was about. It may even take a few paragraphs before it becomes clear. But for me, the worst part was that all along I was waiting for something to happen, really happen. But at the end, the solution to the mystery is told, not shown. Detectives might be used to it, but this mystery reader does not like it.
