Split-second suspense. Absorbing.
Penetrating your unsuspecting mind with the sheer terror of crimes devised by this super-crafty, half-insane mastermind.
Small biblical passages from the Old Testament are the elusive clues, and the simple, reappearing letters "FHC". That's it. Worthy of Sherlock Holmes.
Unsolvable? That's the game.
Take a quick trip back to ancient Rome, and then be catapulted back to today's world now, watching the same crime follow time.
James Patterson style quick chapters, Stephen King style thriller. Climatic finish. Best of all worlds.
