Dying Scream (2009) - Plot & Excerpts

If an author can keep a reader who plows through 3-4 serial killer books a month from figuring out the ending I'd say she's earned the 3.5 points. I enjoy the challenge even if I fail to uncover the guilty culprit. Well, almost failed :P Some of the connections made and clues found were a tad bit too convenient but Burton did a great job otherwise. Her plot took its sweet time in unfolding itself. Never revealing too much nor too less. So many writers struggle to get this balance! This was an interesting book, not a great one, but interesting. The book starts from the perspective of the killer, who is making women act out a fantasy, call him Craig and he calls them Adrianna. The story then goes to explain who Craig and Adrianna are. A couple who a few months after their marriage were in a car accident which put Craig inn a coma for two years before he died. The story takes places a year after his death and focuses on the widow moving on with her life. Except someone is fixated on her and there is new evidence in a case that her former lover cop was working that tied to her former husband. The book starts interesting, but about halfway through the action slows down and focuses more on the drama and feelings of the characters. For me it made that section difficult to get through. It does pick back up near the end, though the climactic ending is a bit too rushed. All in all not bad, but not a favorite.
