The book has a lot of pace, reads well because the author knows how to maintain the suspense, but I looked up to heaven umpteen times during playback. This book is just over 1000 pages in paperback. And every 50 pages or so, a torture session lasts about twenty pages, you have been warned. I read where other police torture sessions are also present but not so automatic and so little if necessary to the story. I suspect a big publisher working on it. For history, the main protagonist is a criminal convicted of murder on police officers, and we are in his mind while he was in prison. So of course, it must be us friendly. And so, instead of an anti-hero, was a protagonist who has all the excuses of the earth, which is not criminal in his mind. First disappointment. Obviously, she has a magical effect on everyone, without anyone really grasp why, and all its replicas are fly so it fascinates everyone. It is smart not care what it is saying banalities. Oh, and the police, without spoiler, it's all rotten abusers, they are wicked! No fine psychology home. Not to mention the twist that could have been great if it had not been so grotesque!
This book could take us to the prison and what he tries to do. Humanize held (the similarities to various recent developments are not accidental!), Why not, but would it give them a complex psychology minimum instead of going directly into the almost total denial of the crimes (the victims of such crimes are never with personality by the way, sometimes they are not even mentioned). Making victims who are in the prison world, it can also be part of reality, but here no allusion to the lack of means of administration, lack of personnel, all external legal aid or associative or even families, bad regulations, etc ... It's a shame, and it misses the point. By making the main character a typical manic pixie girl with no outside view that those extremist reactions to his person for reasons often misleading, the author misses his novel, which is nothing more than a good unpretentious thriller so it could have been a real masterpiece with a little psychological characterization. For a novel that revolves around the justifications that can produce certain actions on the psychology of people just ....
