In this, his first novel, Graeme Cameron takes the reader
into the complex mind of a serial killer, a unique character who remains
nameless, and whose undoing is built up, throughout the story. Prone to
violence from his past, and frustrated by the disillusioned and complicated relationships
with the women in his life, the character becomes more greatly understood as
his demise unfolds, and the extremes that are “normal” to the character, become
to the reader as well. Cameron’s ability to create a cast of such deeply
conflicted characters whose complexities intertwine in disturbing ways makes
this a good read.
