Review: Into the Black Nowhere by Meg Gardiner

I love psychological and crime thrillers. Criminal Minds also happens to be one of my favourite shows. Into the Black Nowhere was like watching an episode of that show, creepy, captivating and suspenseful. The story follows FBI Profiler, Caitlin Hendrix, and her fellow BAU members as they head to Texas to investigate a series of mysterious abductions. It’s not long until they locate the bodies of a couple of the missing women, each left in a white nightgown, surrounded by Polaroid pictures of slain women in white nighties. Once Caitlin narrows down the suspect list to one man, she won’t rest until she has him in police custody. The only problem is, even though he fits the profile perfectly, any evidence she has is circumstantial. But Caitlin doesn’t let up, and what ensues is a fast-paced game of cat and mouse. Into the Black Nowhere was dark, mysterious, and kept me on the edge of my seat. It is based on real-life serial killer, Ted Bundy, so sometimes things were a bit predictable if you’ve read anything about him, BUT there was a twist in the end that I wasn’t expecting! I did not read the first book in the series, UNSUB, but I will most definitely be doing that now, as well as reading any other book that may follow! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this to someone looking for an intriguing Crime-thriller.
