An easy read, it's one of the few novels I've read in a day. You can tell it came out within six months of the main characters capture though. It's full of grammatical errors and references without explination. The end is very open too because of the timeline. It does give an good picture of the crimes and the killer and was interesting.

This was a horrific read of murder and the man who couldn't get enough of it. Neighbors new him as the quite unemployed landscaper who tended his mothers beautiful garden. None of them ever suspected that the foul odors coming from his garage was the stench of death hanging over the blood soaked wheelbarrow, or that the truck he used to carry fresh soil and flower bulbs in became a hearse once night fell....
