Grotesque

By Ellen Steiber

Stone Cold A serial killer is stalking the city, slashing his victims' faces before killing them. But when the murderer is caught, he claims to have been possessed by the spirit of an ancient, malicious gargoyle--one he fears will now possess someone else. When the brutal deaths continue, even after the alleged killer is safely jailed, Special Agent Mulder and Scully are called in. Is this the work of a copycat killer? Or could a demonic force somehow be responsible? Mulder can think of only one way to solve the case: In order to catch a monster, you've got to become one yourself...

It Pulls You In...And Keeps You There!

I started reading this book in a local bookstore and it got me curious so I had to purchase the book to find out the rest of the story. I found the book to be excellent: it keeps you on the edge of your seat, it leads you to believe things (only to find out you didn't know what you thought you knew), it has different twists to throw you off, is well written, and is easy to read. To be honest, I'm 32 years old and pick up "young adult" type books in order to give me a break from books by Grisham or Clancey. It's good to enjoy a book without having to think too hard. I have not read any other books in this series (and have watched X-Files only once), but I'm going to start.
