Reader comments
After reading it, I can only say: Integrity, no, no, no character, no concealment and no gain under the quality of human nature.
The writing style of this book is very unique, the text is concise and powerful, making people feel like they are in the world of a killer. The author's characterization of the characters is also very delicate, reminding me of the characters in "The Godfather". Levin's loneliness and desire for trust touched me very much. I think this book is not only a suspense novel, but also a profound discussion of human nature. Well worth reading!
