Razor Blade Tears by S.A. Cosby

 Two young men have been murdered. They were married to one another and had a young daughter. Two fathers who are different as night and day and who couldn't accept their sons as gay come together to find out who killed their sons and avenge their death.

The writing wasn't my cup to tea. I found it to be long winded and dry for stretches at a time. The violence didn't bother me but I can see how it could be an issue for others.  The book felt very disjointed and had trouble finishing it. 

Chasing the Boogeyman by Richard Chizmar

In the summer of 1988, the mutilated bodies of four young girls show up in a small city in Maryland.  The Author, Richard Chizmar grew up in this town and returned to live with his parents for the summer.  The story is told from his point of view. He gets details about the cases that the normal person wouldn't. He starts to feel haunted by the "boogeyman" as the story's intensity increases.

The read is clever, frightening and infuriating. Quite possibly the most well written book I have read this year! You don't want to miss out on it.
