Welcome to Litsy!

This is a solid debut for Mr. Jordan. The way he intertwined fact with fiction was interesting. The "Torso Murderer" who killed several people in the Cleveland in the 40's who alluded capture from Elliot Ness. On to the fictional character "The Butcher”. Attorney John Coleman, is familiar with “The Butcher” his father was the lead detective on the case. Now almost 60yrs later he‘s up against “The Butcher” or copycat. Is History repeating itself?

I won this ARC from Bookish First and loved it! Based on historical events, it bring to life a serial killer like no other and a flawed lawyer with a troubled marriage determined to avenge the murder of a friend while keeping his own secrets buried. Not for the faint of heart as it‘s gruesome, dark, and edgy. I‘ll host a giveaway and mail to a random winner if you tell me your favorite thriller this year!

I was a long way into this book before it grabbed me and I almost gave up on it but I‘m glad I didn‘t as once I got into it I couldn‘t put it down. I love gruesome scary books but there‘s was a few chapters that had my stomach churning, so good! Slow start but in the end it was a roller coaster!
