These are some of the most gruesome crime scenes I have read. Hunter and Garcia cannot believe what they are seeing and they have seen a lot of them. Some of them turned my stomach. This is one sadistic killer. The pieces of the puzzle are slowly revealed and it all comes to a chilling and surprising conclusion.

I was born in Brasilia, Brazil where I spent my childhood and teenage years. After graduating from high school, I moved to the USA where I studied psychology with specialization in criminal behaviour. During my University years I held a variety of odd jobs, ranging from flipping burgers to being part of an all male exotic dancing group. This was an absolutely dark, gritty, gory and twisted (when it comes to the MO of the killer, the motivation isn't really twisted - like I said sometimes the killer is relatable) book. Definitely not for the faint-hearted. Mord für Mord steigert sich in meinen Augen die Kreativität der Tötungen und ich habe mich als Leserin oft gefragt „Wie kommt man nur auf so eine kranke Idee?“ Blutige Stufen“ ist extrem brutal und weiß Gott nichts für schwache Nerven. Aber spannend von der ersten bis zur letzten Seite. Absolut empfehlenswert! With no forensic evidence to go on, Robert Hunter must catch the most disciplined and systematic killer that he has ever encountered, someone who thrives on the victims' fear, and to whom death is a lesson that needs to be taught.

An insanely good crime series. Extraordinarily well written, high quality and high drama all the way' Liz Loves Books

Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the GoodReads database with this name. See this thread for more information. Instead, he knows he is dealing with a killer who is tremendously disciplined, systematic, creative, and patient. A killer whose MO was too complex to be copied and too complex for freaky coincidences. Tikrai daug visko įpinta į šią istoriją ir džiaugiuosi, jog autorius pasirinko būtent tokią temą. Apie tai yra tiesiog būtina kalbėti ir net neabejoju, jog ši pronlema yra išlikusi ir šiomis dienomis. Su visišku nekantrumu laukiu sekančios autoriaus knygos, nes panašu, kad Roberto Hanterio laukia nauja medžioklė 🖤 Do you believe the Devil exists, Detective?’ the officer at the end of the line asks. ‘Because if you don’t . . . I’m sure you will once you get here.’Genesis takes us on another Robert Hunter journey of terror. We meet a killer so vicious and meticulous that even the Ultra-Violent Crimes Unit shudder. He calls himself The Mentor. He torments his victims by causing extreme fear, then excruciating pain and finally death. He always leaves part of a poem with the body and in a day or two after the murder, sends a video message to the victim's loved one. A message that makes them lose their mind. For me personally, this overstepped the mark. It was just too gruesome especially given the motive. This is the work of a psychopath and someone devoid of human emotion, remorse, or empathy, not the work of a vengeful person no matter what drove them to seek retribution.
