Broken doll book 5

Whatever possessed me to purchase the book was right on the money I will start by saying that the gruesomeness of this novel was well done and considering the subject matter it was tastefully done I love the idea of profilers behavioural science I ve dealt with it during my career and it just fascinates me The profiler in this novel is Jefferson Winter whose father was arrested as he was a serial killer Years later Jefferson is in the FBI working as a profiler and his father is put to death by injection His father s dying words were not spoken aloud but they were mouthed and aimed at his son Jefferson who was watching the execution The words were We re the same Jefferson is haunted by these words but in this book this isn t really followed up and though this is a series I don t expect Jefferson to join in on the madness that his father was So Jefferson leaves the FBI and becomes a profiler consultant He goes to England where there is an unsub kidnapping women.

Torturing them and the final act he commits prior to releasing them is a lobotomy Again though it sounds gruesome James Carol deals with the subject matter in a way that the picture is clearly delivered without really getting into the details It is an excellent read So the clues are provided and followed up Jefferson is truly a master at his craft and though there are many twists and turns the hunt for the perp goes on schedule Jefferson finds various allies one would not expect but they are clearly very useful The one small beef I have with the book is that towards the ending Jefferson taps his ally for a vehicle and it s a V8 Maserati for its speed to get to the killers location The thing is he is driving through a blizzard and a Maserati is clearly not the car of choice though Jefferson does admit that fact while speeding to the location so that basis is covered so to speak The ending was also confusing in that the lead detective Jefferson is assisting altered the report The author makes a big deal about this and at first I was a bit confused as to why any doctoring of the report was needed I thought it was a great way to handle the killer Yet the I thought about it the report would have to be doctored due to the fact that Jefferson and the lead detective Hatcher were basically on a mission to execute the killer In my mind no big deal but realistically some adjusting of what happened would have to be read into the report Also on the note of the doctoring of the report is the fact that the killer recorded all his torturing but again I saw nothing wrong with what was on tape and how the report would eventually read My review of the ending may sound confusing unless you have read the book So all in all I sometimes have to reach for books when it comes to the the 3 for 10 section Another issue with the 3 10 is that I often get stuck with books that are a part of a series and I have chosen like the tenth one having read no others in the series Luckily this happened to be the first in the series After reading this book it was no reach at all This is well written and held my attention It was fun and exciting and I identified with everyone involved In fact I have ordered the next three books in the series I have discovered another author I really enjoy I hope I don t jinx myself but I seem to have a knack of being able to identify books I really enjoy I am not an easy rater as my average score would indicate I have rated some books very low but the books I love like this one and most I seem to read I score high because I truly enjoy them If you like good detective work or even love the idea of profiling then try this series out and it starts with this book I rate this a nine out of ten It was great and remember the subject matter is held well in check Thriller Super verhaal Van begin tot einde spannend en moeilijk weg te leggen Een aanrader Thriller Mr Carol.

Broken Dolls (Jefferson Winter, #1)When I went into my unread library I read the back cover which described a serial killer who performed lobotomies I wondered why I had bought the book but I knew I got it in the 3 for 10 section at the bookstore However I am really enjoying your books now that I have discovered them and this was no exception This is an excellent thriller fast paced great characters and an excellent story that takes you in and does not let go until the end Ex FBI profiler Jefferson Winters is the son of one of America s worst serial killers and he arrives in London to assist on a case where someone is kidnapping young women keeping them for months and torturing them a man that Winter intends to take off the streets This really is great story telling and I loved every minute of it Thriller Jefferson Winter is the son of an executed serial killer ex FBI profiler and international freelance consultant hunting serial killers I found him to be a bit cocky because he s usually right too perfect because the author gave him no flaws and a lonely man because he moves on as soon as the killer is caught He is described as a genius and has a sense of humor at times. Broken dollar saloon odessa Early in the book there were a few scenes that were condescending to women which didn t sit well with me Fortunately that didn t last long and no sexual relationship developed between Winter and Sophie Templeton the local female cop working the case. Broken doll cosplay I enjoyed the plot and the deductions that Winter made as he figured out the whodunnit Winter does go rogue to solve cases and that is why he s ex FBI but it s fun to read. Broken doll house Since this is a debut novel I m cutting James Carol some slack and giving this 4 stars It did hold my interest I have the second and third books and will move on to them next I hope to learn about Winter Fingers crossed that I m not disappointed Thriller We build the foundation of our lives on faultlines and shifting sand and in his last moments my father had managed to send a Richter nine quake rattling through mine destroying everything I d held as right and true. Broken doll cosplay Is there anything worse than a sadistic serial killer I didn t think so but author James Carol changed my mind Instead of murdering the victims bodies his killer murders their souls by giving them lobotomies This takes a special kind of sicko who can only be caught by a special kind of hero. Broken doll face paint Jefferson Winter fits the bill As the son of a serial killer he is in touch with his dark side Surprisingly this doesn t make him a brooding tortured man his sense of humour is delightful His wit is razor sharp even though his IQ is probably and by his own grudging admission lower than Da Vinci s Not that Winter gives a rat s arse He isn t too bothered by rules either which is why he resigned from the FBI to become a jet setting consultant This case takes him to the UK It s freezing and he d much rather be in California but at least the chemistry between him and DI Sophie Templeton creates some heatI can t believe I ve only just heard of this author Broken Dolls was a fresh riveting read that left me a little breathless and a lot excited about the rest of the series Grammatically incorrect I know but I m not that big on rules either Thriller 45 5Esta novela me enganch desde la primera p gina una novela de lo m s adictiva con una historia original y cruda un ritmo trepidante y con un impactante final con giros sorprendentes Es una novela que no da tregua al lector. Broken dolls dance moms Toda la historia est construida alrededor de un personaje muy carism tico que es el protagonista de la novela el exprofiler del FBI Jefferson Winter que lleva una carga personal a cuestas demostrarse a s mismo y al mundo que no es como su padre. Broken doll house Totalmente recomendable para los amantes de la novela negra Thriller Broken Dolls is a fantastically disturbing crime novel that shares with us the horror of a particularly brutal and sadistic serial killer If you like your crime novels with a bit of graphic eye popping moments edge of your seat tension and some spine chilling moments then you will love Broken Dolls as did I Jefferson Winter is no ordinary investigator. Broken dolls dance moms The son of one of America s most renowned serial killers Winter has spent his life trying to distance himself from his father s legacy Once a rising star at the FBI he is now a freelance consultant jetting around the globe helping local law enforcement agencies with difficult cases He s not got Da Vinci s IQ but he s pretty close. Broken doll book 5 I LOVE a book with a Profiler in it yes I am a fan of the FBI s Academy at Quantico and those that rise through it s training and field experience to be able to get into the heads of the world s worse killers I wanted to be a Profiler when I left school true. Broken dollar saloon odessa We are introduced to Jefferson Winter an incredibly intelligent and insightful man who is also down to earth and very easy to connect with He s been brought to England to work on a horrific case where young women are turning up released from torture and captivity LOBOTOMISED that basically means that the front part of their brains the part that holds the personality ability to process think make decisions is mangled gone kaput mashed potato brain Lobotomies were used years ago in mental institutions as a so called cure for the seriously insane eventually someone realised they were just making zombies out of these insane people so the practice died off thank God But this killer likes the technique and has practiced it well The killer abducts then holds the women for months they show signs of extreme torture and abuse and then are released essentially as a vegetable for the rest of their lives Death would have been a kinder end result It s a race against time for Jefferson to find the latest woman taken before it s too late and another woman is damaged for life This killer has taste he chooses his victims carefully he has a preferred type he s very clever and it makes for fascinating reading. Broken dollar saloon odessa The plot is fast paced from the start the book moves between Jefferson and the police profiling and hunting this madman and the killer and what he is getting up to with his latest victim We also hear from the victim herself what she is thinking feeling going through that was done really well if you ask me It s quite disturbing I really was imagining how terrifying it would beit s the type of book you lose time in reading I devoured it. Broken doll book 5 The killer uses sadistic techniques and is well prepared to avoid being found he has no intention of slipping up and making a mistake The pace begins to really get traction in the latter half of the book and I was hardly breathing reading the last few chapters yelling at the book telling the characters what to do you know those type of books Where the tension spreads to you Blimey I needed a stiff drink after this one Very entertaining will thrill any crime fan I think it s got a touch of difference about it I liked Jefferson I think the plot was excellent with a unique aspect to it it keeps you on your toes and interested like watching a car crash you don t want to look but you can t help yourself The plight of these women is horrific There are a few good twists in this book too one that I DID NOT SEE COMING That one slapped me upside the head and I was telling the author he did a very good job on that one. Broken doll costume child 5 star read this one for me can t wait for the next book in this series I am sure it s going to be a hit Very chilling thrilling and disturbing What do you want in your crime books featuring a serial killer Oh yes A savvy smart Profiler who is on the case Tick We have a full house here Thriller It s been a while since I last delved into the catch a serial killer genre and to be honest the repetitive nature of all the various different attempts eventually put me off It turned into a chore searching for one that would bring something different to the table characters that I could root for and a bad guy worthy of the accolade My favourites of course being the darker stuff point of view characters from the hunter and the hunted So Broken Dolls is my latest and a return to the crime thriller stuff that I liked to read before turning to fantasy and my latest thing dark fiction and horror So could Broken Dolls manage to reinvigorate my feelings regarding that well worn track searching for a killer who invariably tortures and kills and eventually makes a mistake or is caught through sheer luck or ingenuity Well Jefferson Winter is the hunter a former FBI profiler who contracts out as a consultant searching for serial killers and the like He s got an incredibly high IQ of course drinks smokes and his father was caught and executed as a convicted serial killer His latest case is in London a brutal cold blooded assailant who kidnaps and tortures his female victims keeps them incapacitated for months psychologically torments them and an all but final nail in the coffin Using a particularly cringe worthy implement he takes their minds leaving them a drooling vegetable Now the hunted doesn t really get a point of view standing barring one chapter his latest victim Rachel does however so through her treatment we get a first hand view of the miscreants mind games and violent inclinations Jefferson is partnered with a female detective named Templeton who we re repeatedly told has the looks of a model and is absolutely stunning When I say repeatedly that s certainly how it felt almost like a setup another ideal victim scenario So you can probably guess what s going to happen to her and it s a little bit painful to watch it develop So did Broken Dolls do it for me well I d have to say it did and it didn t I m still in two minds about Jefferson Winter the whole likening his intelligence to Da Vinci was cheap as was the model like detective The thing that wasn t really exploited was the hunter s killer father and the likelihood that he could go the same way there could be a darkness to this character that may come in future episodes of his story and that s the intriguing element There was a couple of surprises that caught me but nothing really earth shattering a familiar false trail exercise but on the whole the paths are familiar so it s down to the characters and there s just enough there to revisit this series. Broken doll book 5 Also posted at Thriller Broken Dolls by James Carol was a very disturbing read it chilled me to the core but thoroughly enjoyed it The Characters were well scripted very likeable especially Jefferson Winter Sophie Templeton This was a really good novel a page turner. Broken doll book 5 Di Mark Hatcher from Scotland yard calls Jefferson Winter to help him solve a case being the son of a serial killer is a former FBI agent now profiler he agrees to help Hatcher solve a case involving a psychopath who tortures women keeps them for months then lobotomises them which was hard to digest was left gasping as the kidnapping rises. Broken dollar saloon odessa Four women were kept in the basement tied up so the Jack Cutter as Hatcher Winter calls him can do whatever he wants with them some of the dialogue made me quite queasy but I soldiered on. Broken doll book 5 The plot heats up when Donald Cole s daughter Rachel Morris disappears Winter thinks she is Jack Cutters next victim we find her held captive tortured frightened for the life Winter thinks that there are two uncus Jack Cutter a woman which Hatcher dismisses on the spot but as they dig deeper into the perp they find a disturbing development. Broken doll book 5 When DS Sophie Templeton gets taken there is nothing Winter Hatcher wont do to catch this psychopath they put plan in place BUT WILL RACHEL SOPHIE SURVIVE only time will tellLike I said this was very disturbing for me as a woman wouldn t wish this on my worst enemy it was a bit demeaning to woman early on don t read this if you don t like a lot of gore Thriller Okay okay umsonst gestresst D Ich hatte Unrecht mit meiner Vermutung und das ist gut Das Buch war mir ein bisschen zu unrealistisch sonst aber echt gut Thriller
