The Poet

Keernan Lanismore

Great read. Wish I had read The Narrows in proper sequence. Both 5 star books.

The Poet was one of the books I was dying to read. I had been waiting to get this book for almost two years, and it was worth it.

Jack McEvoy is a crime reporter for a newspaper in Denver, where he will find out about his twin brother's suicide. Trying to accept the death of his brother, he will decide to write a story about police suicides over the years. While at the beginning of his research, he will discover that something is not how it is supposed to be. He knows that behind his brother's suicide there is something more.

There is not a single thing that I did not like about this book. It's so addictive that you will not put this book down that easily.

The apparent suicide of his policeman brother sets Denver crime reporter Jack McEvoy on edge. Surprise at the circumstances of his brother's death prompts Jack to look into a whole series of police suicides, and puts him on the trail of a cop killer whose victims are selected all too carefully. Not only that, but they all leave suicide notes drawn from the poems of writer Edgar Allan Poe in their wake. More frightening still, the killer appears to know that Jack is getting nearer and nearer. An investigation that looks like the story of a lifetime might also be Jack's ticket to a lonely end.
