I really liked this serial killer ... His neatness and his precision...The twisted sense of vengeance and the acute mind that motivated his every move are frakingly scary and yet I can't deny I kept feeling a bit of admiration towards such perseverence and calm obstination. And at the same time I...
Es un libro raro, al principio parece libro de superación personal, luego ya se dedica al esclarecimiento de los crímenes. Mucho de lo que el policía resuelve en este libro, cuenta con la ayuda de otras personas, principalmente de su esposa, por lo que no sería tan buen detective si tuviera que a...
Desde el primer momento te engancha, el misterio de los números y del m odus operandi del asesino son muy originales y están muy bien desarrollados, aunque al final se desinfla bastante y el desenlace te deja un poco frío, pero es difícil mantener el misterio tantas páginas.No entiendo mucho de c...

It's funny... the other day I was wondering what I wanted to read on BART the next day and I just thought "hey, how about another one of those Dave Gurney books". After I started reading this one, I went back and read my review for book 1, wherein I stated "I don't think I'm going to read any mo...
I liked the story, and I liked that I figured out who the murderer was around the same time as the detective main character and not sooner. The crimes were sufficiently creepy to keep me interested, and I actually learned some things. What I didn't like was how the author keeps conversations goin...
This book had me from the start, the narration was fantastic. Dave is a retired NYPD cop with a history and one bad case where I presume he was nearly killed and he moved to the country with his 2nd wife Madeline. Dave has a son whom he seems estranged from and another son who died. Dave craves ...
I have been an avid fan of John Verdon since his first book "Think of A Number". Then came "Shut Your Eyes Tight" and after that came "Let the Devil Sleep". As unique is the hero of these books, the problems are too.Dave Gurney is a retired detective who tries to live a peaceful life with his bel...
John Verdone has written four of the best police detective novels ever. Called the Gurney Detective novels this is the third of four books written so far. All books are available on Audible.com. This audiobook as well as the fourth book "Peter Pan Must Die" are narrated by Robert Fass. Robert is...
Otra fantástica obra del Sr. Verdon.Es de los pocos autores que me tienen en ascuas de principio a fin, y de los poquísimos que no defraudan al final.Una historia compleja, inteligente, que juega con el lector, que deja entrever más de lo que parece y menos de lo que crees (no sé si tiene sentido...
The deepening dusk had changed the color of the forested ridge above it from a dozen shades of green and gold to a monochromatic greenish gray. It made him think of the hillside opposite Jack Hardwick’s house, the hillside the shots had come from that had severed the power and phone lines. Soon h...
said Madeleine, wincing. “Who found him like that?” She was standing at the sink island, a half-drained colander of noodles in her hands. Gurney was sitting on a high stool across from her. He’d been relating the low points, difficulties, and conflicts of his day—something that didn’t come natura...
