So, yeah. Probably the best thriller I've read. Harris writes well, and his insane villain is pretty awesome. Honestly, every other thriller wants to be this, but the ones I've read fail epically. The writer's don't have the chops to make a potentially over-the-top villain realistic, human, actually interesting like Dolarhyde. So, yeah, I enjoyed this book, much to my surprise. I would consider reading more of his stuff.
