This book doesn't live up to the title. It has to be the tamest serial killer book I've read. Definitely not a gory serial killer. I also found it quite similar to Jeneva Rose's Perfect Marriage and the twist very predictable. The dialogue was stilted, Beth's character was annoying and not particularly likable and the other characters didn't really add anything. The pace was also slow making the whole thing long winded. That being said if you like your crime books without the gory murders then this might be for you
