I’m sort of stingy when it comes to book shout-outs. A book
really has to grab me…keep me turning the pages. But I Hunt Killers totally blew me away.
What's it about?
Jasper (Jazz) Dent had a unique upbringing. Unique in that his father was a famous serial killer. Yeah, that would
make you stand out. And worse, Dad wanted Jazz to go into the family business.
Like father like son? What Jazz really learned over the years was how to recognize
the patterns of a serial killer. And he uses that expertise to help out the local police. But
while he wants to do the right then, he still titters on the brink. Will he one
day cross over to the dark side? Follow in Dad’s footsteps?
I know it’s only April, but I Hunt Killers is hands down my
favorite book so far this year. I can always count on Barry Lyga to produce
edgy books with superb writing, but he’s outdone himself with this one. I hope
this thriller will bring about a new trend in YA fiction.
