Title: What Evil Looks Like From the Inside
Review: Although Shubin tries to distance readers from the crime by taking them through the story via the protagonist's cousin Colin, the author is so intent on showing the perpetrator's internal process that we are, in fact, catapulted into the very heart and soul of evil itself. So we undergo this chilling journey of obsessional worry, fear, and conscience to its ultimate conclusion with minimal buffer and explore the darkness of a single impulsive act all the more lucidly for that lack of detachment. Shubin is an artful writer, and this novel will stand among his very best-may it be on the shelves a long, long time. G. Miki Hayden, author of Writing the Mystery
