I accidentally bought Hangman first, read the first chapter then put it straight down and ordered Ragdoll.
What a rollercoaster. A gritty crime drama following Wolf who is chasing after a killer with a strange motive and calling card. 
I loved so much about this book. If you’re a fan of Luther and BBC crime dramas you’ll love this - I wasn’t surprised to read that it was actually written as a TV show screenplay. But unlike other screenplay turned novels, it was full of colourful descriptions which really paint an amazing picture.
My only negative was the ending. I wasn’t sure... but now onto Hangman!

A slow burn until the final 100 pages when everything flips and motors ahead. Wouldn't re-read but did have enjoyable moments, and I would definitely consider reading the second installment.

Snel en humor. Goed plot. Niet zo duister als verwacht. Had moeite met erin komen maar toen ik erin zat las ie als een trein.

One body. Six victims. William Fawkes, a controversial detective known as The Wolf, has just been reinstated to his post after months of psychological assessment following allegations of a shocking assault. A veteran of the force, Fawkes thinks he’s seen it all. That is, until his former partner and friend, Detective Emily Baxter, calls him to a crime scene and leads him to a career-defining cadaver: the dismembered parts of six victims sewn together like a puppet—a corpse that becomes known in the press as the “ragdoll.” Fawkes is tasked with identifying the six victims, but that gets dicey when his reporter ex-wife anonymously receives photographs from the crime scene, along with a list of six names, and the dates on which the Ragdoll Killer plans to murder them. The final name on the list is Fawkes. Baxter and her trainee partner, Alex Edmunds, hone in on figuring out what links the victims together before the killer strikes again. But for Fawkes, seeing his name on the list sparks a dark memory, and he fears that the catalyst for these killings has more to do with him—and his past—than anyone realizes. With a breakneck pace, a twisty plot, and a wicked sense of humor, RAGDOLL announces the arrival of the hottest new brand in crime fiction.
