The Sculptor is a very good thriller of the serial killer as artist variety. But being that variety of thriller, it is exactly why I rated this novel three and a half stars rather than a teetering four.In my opinion, the mad serial killer artist is way overdone. I must have read three or four books ...
I am having a difficult time with this book keeping my attention. The premise of the story is good and similiar to one of my favorite contemporary books, but it is much more slower in laying the story out. I am hoping it picks up speed soon.
Excellent fast paced, edge of your seat thriller. WOW. I look forward to more from Mr. Funaro! Thank you for a great book.
