Summary

When the body of a young woman is discovered in a derelict cottage in the middle of Los Angeles National Forest, Homicide Detective Robert Hunter finds himself entering a horrific and recurring nightmare. Naked, strung from two wooden posts, the victim was sadistically tortured before meeting an excruciatingly painful death. All the skin has been ripped from her face - while she was still alive. On the nape of her neck has been carved a strange double cross: the signature of a psychopath known as the Crucifix Killer.

But that's impossible. Because two years ago, the Crucifix Killer was caught and executed. Could this therefore be a copycat killer? Or could the unthinkable be true? Is the real killer still out there, ready to embark once again on a vicious and violent killing spree, selecting his victims seemingly at random, taunting Robert Hunter with his inability to catch him?

Hunter and his rookie partner are about to enter a nightmare beyond imagining.

Enjoyable

I knew it! I couldn't figure out why I knew the killer was who it was. But I did. Interesting ending though! Enjoyed this book

Bloodthirsty

It’s a hard, sadistic listen but a good story with solid characters. I’ll listen to the next one.

Not my normal cup of tea but real chapter turner

Kept the suspense and very good pacing, not too wordy or going off on too many tangents but still 3d characters with some level of back story

The crucifix killer

Absolutely love Chris Carter books, was introduced to them by a friend some years ago
Very edge of the seat serial killer books that differ due to the psychological side 👍

Love it!

Wanting to re-reading the Hunter series in chronological order but, not having the time to actually read the books, I decided to listen to them instead. Best decision made in a long time!
I could have the book read to me in every room through Alexa then through Bluetooth in the car and still pack up ready to move home.
The book is gripping. Thomas Judd narrates exactly how I’d hear the dialogue in my head if I was reading the physical book. Great plot, great twists, great characters. I’m hooked! Needless to say, the Hunter series is now downloaded ready to listen to and comes highly recommended - by little old me!!
