Eine Stadt atmet auf, der Hauptverdächtige einer Mordserie sitzt in Untersuchungshaft. Dieser Verdächtige heißt Mike Connors. Doch als ein erneutes Opfer gefunden wird, verändert sich der Verdacht. Was ist wirklich passiert bei den Blue-Morden, an deren Tatort immer etwas Blaues gefunden wurde?
"Die dunkle Wahrheit" ist der zweite Teil einer Trilogie. Es ist die Fortsetzung von "Blue: Bei Anruf Gefahr". In diesem Buch geht es jedoch mehr um die dunkle Seite von psychischen Krankheiten. Im Buch geht es vor allem um die Innenwelt des Mörders und nicht nur um die Ermittlung rund um die Opfer. Mich persönlich hat der erste Bann der Serie mehr in den Bann gezogen. Denn selbst wenn dieses Buch interessant ist, um die Handlungen des Hauptcharakters nachzuvollziehen, so war es dennoch in die Länge gezogen und nicht besonders spannend.
Ich würde das Buch also eher Leuten empfehlen, die lieber psychologische Thriller haben und keine Aktion brauchen, um ein Buch spannend zu finden.
I decided to read this book because it was lying on the library floor and I was like yolo so I issued it. This book is by a New Zealand writer and I quite liked it because it was different from most books and humorous. A character in the story 'Blue' was the most interesting for me because he was not human Blue's a cellphone, he played the biggest part in the novel and had authority and superiority. He was able to control Connors (owner of Blue) conscious mind and control him. This novel made me think deeply about murders and being interviewed by detectives because when I leave school I've always wanted to be a detective. It also made me think of hoe ironically he got away with murdering 5 people so casually. "If you dont kill her she'll destroy you in ways you'd never expect" This quote stood out for me in the book because it made me feel strong emotions towards the book. When this was said I felt really agitated. This novel made me think differently about whats really insane and what isn't. It gave me a more clearer understanding on my perspective of insanity.
