This book had such gruesome details of the murders of young girls that I would have stopped reading had I not wanted to know the ending. What's up with this being a major plot line over the last 10 years or so? Reading this book was like reading a Stephen King novel: a series of bad events happening to unfortunate people. The redeeming thing was the depth of the good characters: Biscuit, the protagonist; his grandmother; her friend, the physicists; Dan, the cop; and, Biscuit's cousin L.A. A serial killer is stalking young women, and Biscuit, a.k.a Jim, and L.A., a.k.a. Lee Ann are closer to the killer than they know. As cousins, L.A. and Bis are close as siblings when they are both adopted into the care of their Gram, who is the steadying and loving influence in both their lives. Bis has the gift of foresight and sees these tortured young women, hears their voices, and knows the killer is near. It is Bis and L.A. who ultimately discover the rapist/killer in this coming-of-age story.
Do You like book Ce Qui Meurt En été (2014)?
Good character development and liked the writing style. Storyline seemed a little unstructured.

Not the subject matter I expected, however, well written. No surprises about the outcome.

One of the finest books I've ever read.
