- Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2022This book is just the thing for reading on Halloween. It is dark, and mind boggling. It gives the reader a sense of being right there with David, one of the main characters. The Minotaur is tormenting David and has his son. Why take his son, after all he is a serial killer of women. Is there a connection between the two of them? I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. Read it if you dare.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2022Wow! This is one of those books that you want to keep turning the pages to find out how it ends but at the same time you want to read slow and savor it because is that good. All of the characters in this book are well written but the serial killer created is extremely twisted and the thing of nightmares. The pace to the plot is perfect and it has quite a few twists and turns. I voluntarily reviewed an advance readers copy of this book.

The characters pulled me into the story from the start. I had no problems connecting with them as they brought their story to life. I had no problems picturing myself in their world, the author did a great job with this. This is a fast paced, engaging story that I highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark, graphic but a really good read
I enjoy a good thriller and this book was a darker and more graphic read than my usual type of book. However it was a really good read and the character David took you along with him, sometimes feeling like an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other as he makes his way through his own "maze".

4.0 out of 5 stars Dark & Brutal. A brilliant read.
I love a psychological thriller and this did not disappoint. Gripped me from page 1, so much so I had read the entire book in 3 days. Often dark & brutal, fast paced with plenty of twists & turns. This authors style is definitely my preferred kind of read. I fully recommend this book & look forward to reading more from this author.

A great storyline and really enjoyed the short chapter format which enabled me to take 5 and absorb each element of the story as it developed. Well done Simon, this book would make a great film.
