Killer Genius
Imagine if you lived in a world where you couldn’t be racist, sexist, an uneducated bully or even a career criminal without being killed. That’s at least part of the vision of The Killer Genius, the most elusive serial killer in human history. Her methods are diverse and her knowledge is unfathomable. Sometimes she kills up close, other times she can be miles away. No matter how she decides to kill, one thing is clear – if you’re chosen, you’re as good as gone.
Will the one cop she deems a worthy adversary be able to stop her, or will she tear New York and the world at large apart to achieve her version of a New World Order?

A very good read. Strong story combined with well-developed characters [and just the right amount of humor] makes for a page-turner of a crime story.

VanPatten brings you into the world of NYC crime with an antagonist to rival Moriarity.
Just when you think he's up the ante, he doubles down and brings in a new twist.

Exceptionally interesting novel involving a master computer hacker/serial killer whose victims are bullies, sexual predators and thugs, and the detective whose job it is to stop the killings. Well written with highly interesting characters. Nominated for the African American Literary Award for Best Mystery/Suspense Novel of 2016. I strongly recommend this book.

A police procedural. Not the creepy, horroresque story I was expecting from a Brahm Stoker nominated novel.
Poor editing. Frequent spelling, punctuation, grammar and formatting errors.
Reads like a rough draft.
