Professor Theo Cray caught one of the most prolific serial killers in history using revolutionary scientific methods. Cut off from university research because of the shroud of suspicion around him after the death of his former student and the aftermath of catching his quarry, Cray tries to rebuild his life but finds himself drawn into another unsolved case. The desperate father of a missing child, ignored by the authorities and abandoned by his community, turns to Theo for help. The only clues are children's drawings and an inner-city urban legend about someone called the Toy Man. To unravel the mystery behind the Toy Man, Theo must set aside his scientific preconceptions and embrace a world where dreams and nightmares carry just as much weight as reality. As he becomes immersed in the case, he discovers a far-reaching conspiracy--one that hasn't yet claimed its last victim.

Me: "I'm going to go to bed early tonight and make sure I get a good night's sleep. "

Me, 10 minutes later: "I think I'll start a new book before I go to sleep!"

There's a reason I'm always tired, and I don't have babies or toddlers anymore to blame it on!

katiekat311 I‘m in the same boat. I didn‘t NEED to pick up a book upon finishing When You Reach Me, but, what else was I to do?! 😝😬 2y
Sparklemn This was a page turner. I listened to it a few years ago. Glad you're enjoying it! 2y
Johanna414 @Sparklemn My mom recommended his books and I'm really loving them - they're perfectly fast paced summer reads! 2y

I love, love, LOVE this series. I adore Theo, and the whole “solve crimes with science” is right up my alley. Yes, there are a lot of scientific explanations of things, and it can get a little wordy and confusing 😂 But, the concept is still genius and I love it. Can‘t wait for the next two, but might read something a little less “murder-y” now 😂

Great read ... available on Kindle Unlimited... 2nd in series of 4 (so far)

If you like your amateur detectives bright taut, and full of science this is for you. As good (if not better) than the 1st, #The Natualist.

(If I knew how to put book covers in my reviews using my phone, you knew I would)

rretzler I just search for my book on google and find a picture of it (if it‘s an ebook). If it‘s a real book, I just take a pic. Then I can edit the screen shot (or pic) to make it square and upload it. If your phone can‘t do a square edit (iPhones can), you can use a free photo editor like PicCollage. Then save the pic to your phone gallery and upload to Litsy! 6y
10MoreMin Thanks! Very helpful 6y

I enjoyed this book. It contained many things that interest me. Serial killers, crime scene investigations, and science, science, and science!!

BookDragonNotWorm I'm really enjoying this series so far! 6y
Slajaunie @BookDragonNotWorm Which book are you on? 6y
BookDragonNotWorm @Slajaunie I've finished this one, book 2. Book 3 will be out in February, but I like the first one the best so far. How about you? 6y

Started this and realized there is one before it. I will have to go back and read the first one when I am done.

1. ✅
2. Citizens filing lawsuit against our ridiculous Mayor and city council over the ballpark downtown and the whole not clapping thing.
3. No readathon this weekend - maybe binge read/listen to current book/audiobook.
4. Can‘t think of any jokes.
5. 👍🏻

Back to this one - Lincoln in the Bardo had to go away!

ReadZenRites Enough poop talk? 😂 7y
MelAnn @ReadZenRites no - the format of book doesn‘t work in audiobook. The quote citations way too disruptive! 7y
ReadZenRites AH, that‘s understandable. I‘ll keep it in mind for old-fashioned eyeball reading. 😊 (edited) 7y
Valink I started Lincoln in the Bardo on audio and had to switch to the print book. The audio was too hard for me to follow. 7y
