Review of "A Killer's Tears" by Christian Fernandez, The Book Commentary

"John Bae’s A Killer's Tears melds the finest elements of mystery, crime, and legal thriller into a sensational tale that puts readers on the edge of their seats and has them racing through the pages."

"The revelations in this twisty tale are shocking and following Tom’s investigation until the exciting climax leaves readers spellbound. I love short chapters with well-crafted paragraphs, and Bae excels at them, using them to heighten the pace and the dramatic notes that are characteristic of this tale."

"The plot reserves unexpected twists for readers and emotionally tense moments that start from the beginning of the story." 

"Hope Kane is a puzzle that readers want to unravel and the author uses this character to build the suspense that permeates the narrative. The question: “Did she really kill her husband and daughter?” is persistent and it drives the plot in directions that no one can imagine. A Killer's Tears is an accomplished novel that will appeal to a wide range of thriller fans, deftly plotted, balanced, and intensely propulsive. It grips the reader from the very first page and the grip only tightens as the story moves forward."
