Abandoned
Talk about a psychopath. The serial killer in Abandoned is pure evil and abducts women and keeps them captive in cells for as long as seven years. If they are released, they are lobotomized first so as not to be able to tell their story or give clues as to who took them or where they were kept.
This will be the last of Smoky Barrett series I read. The subject matter of McFayden’s novels is just too gruesome and nightmarish for me.
