I found "Dark Hollow" filled with suspense and hard to put down. The author, John Connolly, really has 2 stories going on in this book. There's mystery, suspense, well rounded characters, a twisting plot and a likable main character. Charlie Parker is a somewhat psychic private detective who manages to pursue cases of some of the most wicked characters in literature. The wicked person here is Caleb Kyle, a scary sadist whose eyes are filled with evil. The plot is intricate but not too much. Enough to enjoy the surprises along the way as Charlie and friends, Angel and Louis, battle the mob, ignorant rednecks and assassins.

The second installment in the Charlie “Bird” Parker series. Another involving, gruesome story. Didn't think it was as good as “Every Dead Thing” but still a cut above your average murder/thriller.

Not bad. A little predictable, though.

from Publishers Weekly---"Grim, hard-edged and compulsively readable"
