These books are just downright scary. They remind me of when I first started reading the author Jeffrey Deaver, and how horrifyingly realistic some of his murder plots were. The fact that they were so random terrified me, and while these murders were not so random its so crazy and gruesome I could see it actually happening. I don't know what that says about me and my imagination but these books freak me out but I also can't put them down!Tania Carver knows how to set the stage and make you squirm. Some of her descriptions may be a bit graphic for some people but she always manages to surprise me. Normally I can figure out mystery novels and who did what when but her stories are a bit more complex and while I may have an idea of where her stories are headed there is usually a surprise twist. If you like scary you will like Tania Carver. I found the plot of this book interesting and did like the characters. I thought the "evil influence" was introduced too early and in a wayso confusing that it would have been better left until the end.The revealed relationship of the protagonist to them seems like way too much of a coincidence and rather unbelievable. Complaints aside, I didlike the characters and found the book to be very well written. I stuck with it to the end and would recommend it to people who like suspense/thriller with a touch of horror.
The German title is very strange "Stirb mein Prinz" but it was very interesting.
