About
"Pulpy serial-killer thriller that gleefully abandons restraint"
An ex-FBI agent is pulled back into the hunt for a charismatic, literature-obsessed serial killer whose cult of devoted followers keeps expanding the body count. What starts as a cat-and-mouse thriller quickly turns into something pulpier: twisty, violent, and unashamedly soapy, with cliffhangers stacked on cliffhangers. It moves fast and leans hard on its lead performances to sell increasingly outlandish plotting. Fun if you want propulsive, trashy suspense; frustrating if you want restraint or plausibility. The tone stays dark and grim throughout, rarely letting up for levity.
