    About this audiobook

    "A heart-pounding roller coaster ride."—Tami Hoag, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Boy

    *A Crime Reads Most Anticipated Book of 2021*

    A serial killer and his copycat are locked in a violent game of cat and mouse. Can DI Anjelica Henley stop them before it’s too late?

    On the day she returns to active duty with the Serial Crimes Unit, Detective Inspector Anjelica Henley is called to a crime scene. Dismembered body parts from two victims have been found by the river.

    The modus operandi bears a striking resemblance to Peter Olivier, the notorious Jigsaw Killer, who has spent the past two years behind bars. When he learns that someone is co-opting his grisly signature—the arrangement of victims’ limbs in puzzle-piece shapes—he decides to take matters into his own hands.

    As the body count rises, DI Anjelica Henley is faced with an unspeakable new threat. Can she apprehend the copycat killer before Olivier finds a way to get to him first? Or will she herself become the next victim?

    Drawing on her experience as a criminal attorney, debut novelist Nadine Matheson delivers the page-turning crime novel of the year. Taut, vivid and addictively sinister, The Jigsaw Man will leave you breathless until the very last page.

      I tried.

      The Jigsaw Man was one of my most anticipated reads this spring. Based on the description and early hype, I expected an intense, gritty, fast-paced thriller. While there are some gritty moments concerning the murders, the story is not intense and is definitely not fast-paced.

      This is a dragged-out police procedural, but not the kind where readers are actually able to solve the crime along with the detectives. I guess I'd label it crime fiction with a police procedural storytelling style.

      The crime itself is interesting, but there's way too much extraneous detail for me. We have a large cast of characters with a whole lot of personal drama. Quite a bit of backstory is woven in, so this first book in a series feels more like a second or third.

      I didn't find the characters well developed or particularly interesting. I kept spacing off. I was bored. At about a third of the way in, I gave up.
