Review title: Disagree with the Violence Criticisms
Product review: I won't rehash the the storyline as it has been already fully described by other readers. I just want to respectfully voice my disagreement with the many reviews here and other venues that criticize the violence in the book. I've had this book for over a year and kept putting off reading because of those opinions. Yes, there was violence and rape, but other than the autopsy description of the first murder I didn't think the author went overboard in a gorefest. I don't want to give anything away, but as the rapist drugged his victims, the description of the rape and violence came from this drugged state and was somewhat softened. Okay, yeah, I know - rape is rape, but I wasnt' cringing from the description. All in all, I thought the book was well paced, had good characterizations and plan on reading Kisscut and Karin's newest.
