I received a copy of this to review for Transworld Book Challenge. I loved the concept of this book- an author discovers that someone has recreated one of his murders and worries that he will be a suspect. Soon after another murder is committed again based on one of his novels. As both of the victims are people he knows he worries what will happen next and begins to investigate himself. He is a well known author with a reputation of writing particularly horrific, violent murder stories and as a result of this the book is, at times, fairly gruesome. The story is interspersed with chapters charting Frank's early life, studenthood and marriage
I found this a gripping read but some of it didn't hold together, particularly with regard to the lack of the police investigation and I found the ending slightly frustrating.
