My Review
Killer Within is a fresh and edgy. A chilling page-turner that will keep you in suspense until the end.
Arnie Milhouse is a cold-blooded killer, who believes his murderous games have lead to his successes in life. Once a coward, Arnie refuses to let that side of him surface again and so the killing continues. However, when the FBI links him to a call girl, who is viciously murdered, Arnie begins making plans to disappear. A chance meeting with a beautiful woman has Arnie planning one more kill before leaving town, but as everyone knows things don't always go as planned.
Killer Within is absolutely gripping. The author does an incredibly job of creating surprise right up to the end. As a reader, often times we get to know everything that's going on in the story and it's the characters who are shocked by the outcome, but the author's choice to withhold some details from readers is effective and adds to the thrill. I also liked that several characters face difficult and life altering situations, but choose to react differently, therefore effecting their entire life experiences. I was reminded just how significant every decision we make truly is.
I recommend picking up a copy of Killer Within. Available on Amazon.
