May I start with a pet peeve? Authors, please stop with the "she suddenly remembered she forgot her cell phone" or "she didn't have a chance to recharge her cell phone." Don't you realize we all hear the "Dun Da Dun Dun" music? Swanson uses it again in this fun and fast read. It doesn't ruin anything, just telegraphs what's about to happen (and often makes the character look foolish, after all, you're in the middle of a cat and mouse game with a possible killer yet you forget your phone? OK, enough venting (and Swanson isn't the only guilty party. ) What I liked about this outing is that there's a unique crime story which I fret some copycat murderer who reads Swanson (or even this review, yikes!) will someday imitate. But it is clever and, while you might think you see the twist coming, you're still not going to be certain who the sociopath is. I didn't realize that this was the third in a series. However, I looked back at my review of the first (which I loved) and I truly don't remember either character. Thus, I didn't know what Henry's relationship to Lily is, or what he does etc. That won't spoil the book as a standalone. Just could have used a bit more of an explanation. I would have enjoyed longer dialogue/time between two characters (Lily & Ethan) but I won't comment further to avoid spoilers (I just wanted Ethan to know more than was revealed to him.) I've enjoyed all of the Peter Swansons I've read. This was no exception. Just keep your cell phone nearby.
