Harris has a very interesting style of writing that I think shines more here than in Red Dragon. Each character feels real, and even the minutia of scenes is engrossing.
A brilliantly-executed story with perfect pacing. My reading experience was sadly tainted by memories of the excellent movie--which, though I haven't seen it in many years, has stuck with me more than I realized--but it was still a suspenseful read, even with some major spoilers.
