'It's night, and I'm in a strange house.
The lights are on, and I'm standing outside a half-open door.
Feeling a terrible sense of foreboding, I walk slowly inside.
And then I see her.

She's dead. There's blood everywhere.
And the most terrifying thing of all is that I think her killer might be me ...'

Not one of his best books, which is a shame, as I have been a big fan since his first book. It's still a good read but a bit below the high standard you have come to expect from him.
