""I'm about halfway done this book and I am loving it, I don't want it to end !! I'm a huge horror mystery fan and this book flows so well it drags you in and it's hard to put down ! 1000% recommend! Can't wait to see the movie when it comes out."" Melissa Smith, Hamilton, Canada.""The Riverside Strangler completely pulled me in. From early on, there's a slow-burn tension that never lets up, and the story grows darker and more gripping with every chapter. What really hooked me was the creativity in the storytelling - especially the serial killer calling into the radio show. Those scenes were genuinely chilling. Hearing the killer's voice woven into the narrative added a creepy, intimate layer to the suspense that made the danger feel immediate and personal. Another standout element was the pattern involving the bridges. Watching the pattern emerge was incredibly satisfying, and it made the investigation feel smart and earned rather than convenient. The atmosphere throughout the book is heavy in the best way - moody, tense, and immersive without being over-the-top. The pacing is excellent, balancing moments of calm with spikes of intensity that kept me saying ""just one more chapter."" The characters feel grounded and believable, which makes the emotional stakes land harder when things start to unravel. By the end, I was fully invested not just in the outcome, but in the journey getting there. This is the kind of thriller that sticks with you after you're done reading - unsettling, thoughtful, and very well put together. If you enjoy dark crime fiction with clever structure, strong atmosphere, and a genuinely creepy antagonist, this is absolutely worth your time."" Shelley Henry, Burlington, Canada.
