Headhunter is a murder mystery, a psychological thriller, a whodunit and a horror story with plenty of details of police investigation procedures and methods. The novel is based in Vancouver, Canada in the 1980s and revolves around a set of grisly murders of young women, whose bodies are found headless. While the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) is investigating, more victims are discovered. Graphic violence, traumatized bodies, and perverted sex are all depicted with powerful imagery in this extremely well-written book.
I have read Headhunter three times, and each time I am gripped by the narrative and held spellbound even though I knew the ending.
“This is, beyond all doubt, a real chiller!”
— Robert Bloch, author of Psycho
