The Gallery of the Dead
by Chris Carter
In typical Chris Carter fashion this book is gory and sucks you in with the first chapter. I think The Robert Hunter series is probably one of my favourites. This is the 9th book in the series and I highly recommend you go and read them all as they are so much better read in order.
In the Gallery of the Dead, Hunter and Garcia join forces with the FBI to try and track a killer who seems to be leaving a trail of bodies with no connections. Each new body just adds to the confusion.
There is a twist that I was not expecting, which left me a tad devastated. I mean I knew something was going to go wrong I just wasn't expecting it to that degree.
Garcia's sarcasm is out in full force in this book which made me laugh a few times. However, I found some parts of the book a bit long winded. Explanations don't need to be that long. Although, there are times when Hunter has huge revelations with regards to the case and we are never told how he comes to those conclusions. You also need to be prepared to not put the book down as most chapters seem to end with a mini cliff hanger. The ending has definitely left me ready for the next one though.
Gallery of the Dead wasn't my favourite out of the Hunter series but I still really enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who loves a gory crime thriller. If you are on the squeamish side I'd probably give it a miss because there is some seriously gross parts.
