Journal Entry 1 by wingPlum-crazywing from Brighouse, West Yorkshire United Kingdom on Tuesday, March 20, 2012
The first victim is a young woman found on Hampstead Heath. Her throat has been slashed and her body mutilated.

This horrifying discovery marks the beginning of Detective Inspector Jack Delaney's toughest ever case. When the expertly dissected body of a second young woman is discovered in a north London flat with a brightly coloured scarf tied around her neck, it suddenly becomes clear that a psychopath is on the loose. There is no apparent connection between the two victims and there are no clear motives - but the crime scenes tell a terrifying story.

Delaney, together with forensic pathologist Kate Walker, needs to act quickly and piece together the evidence in order to uncover the deadly pattern behind the murders. However, violent events from Delaney's past are threatening to catch up with him, and he must stay one step ahead of his enemies if he is to stop the killer from striking again.

This sounded right up my street - suspense, gore & a new detective for me to "meet", who's described as a hard-drinking maverick...just my sort of man - & another Jack to boot!

So did this Jack live up to expectations? Well, let's say he'll certainly be getting a second chance! While it didn't grip me quite as much as I'd hoped (but then, rightly or wrongly, expectations had been very high)I think that was perhaps down to me & tiredness while reading causing lapses of concentration rather than the book lacking in bite!

So while I will be on the lookout for more in the series this Jack isn't joining Reacher, Caffery & Nightingale on my wishlist just yet....
