Ali
Ryan is a tough-girl detective with a persistent streak that makes her
an excellent crime solver. In this mystery/thriller Ali is determined to
prove an apparent suicide at her sister's college is actually murder.
Part of the story is told from Ali's first person point of view. Here
the author does a very good job at depicting what is in the young cop's
mind and you really get to like her and cheer her on towards the middle
and end of the book. The other part of the story is a third person
narrative surrounding the actual murderer who has some serious problems
to say the least. He is definitely a bad guy you love to hate. At first I
was concerned with switching back and forth, but the story is really
interesting and the plot moves forward in a way that it did not take
away from the experience of the novel at all. I would highly recommend
this to crime novel lovers. Hess's take on the female detective story is
new and unique and I think Ali Ryan has a lot to offer as a character.
The supporting characters give a little comic relief which is nice when
reading a book that keeps you on edge like this one does! Awesome job
Andrew Hess I look forward to reading more from you!

This
story makes you think twice about how you treat people. Instead of
killing them with kindness, this one just kills them. Fast paced, keeps
you guessing all the way to the end. On to the next book in this series.

This
book took every ounce of will power I had to put it down long enough
to go to work. I could not wait to get home to read the next page. Every
page is so exciting.

This
is the first suspense murder book I have read. I loved every bit of it
and it kept you wanting more and to see what happens next. This is much
different than what I am used to reading but I really enjoy it and glad I
pick this book to read.

A
wonderful, thrilling ride through the pages. Each page keeps you
wanting to read more and more. I never wanted to put the book down. I
couldn't really. This has now been added to my favorites and to a list
that I call 'want to read again'. I enjoyed the mystery of it all.The book follows Ali Ryan on her journey to follow her dreams of being a detective. She is one strong willed woman that follows her gut instinct on situations.

The
Campus Killer was freakin' awesome. Andrew Hess is a hell of a writer. I
loved the character Ali Ryan. She was really well developed. I want to
read more of these books and since this one says book 1, I know there's
more and I can't wait to read the next. Keep writing, Andrew Hess

Ali
Ryan is a tough girl detective determined to prove that the murder at
her sister’s campus is not a suicide but an actual murder. Ali is
aggressive and doesn’t back down from her intuition. I liked being able
to see the story from Ali’s perspective; seeing what she does from her
view point and what she is feeling at the moment. I could feel the
frustrations that Ali goes through when her Lieutenant wouldn’t believe
her and kept shutting her down.
As I went through the book I wanted to know who was the killer, who kept murdering people. Once I started reading the book I couldn’t put it down. There are so many twists and turns in the books that just about the time you think you know something then you will be faced with yet another twist.
The author does a great job of getting into the minds of the characters. The author leaves little crumbs throughout the book that you start putting together to try to find out who the killer is. The mystery and suspense in the book is fantastic leaving you want to know more.
The overall story appeared to be well thought out and flowed well from beginning to end. There was extra details and twists that you don’t see coming.
The book is written in true Hess fashion. At the end of the book I wanted to reach through and strangle Andrew for the ending. I never expected the ending however I absolutely LOVED the ending!!! Andrew has been given the name “King of Cliffhangers” for a reason and does not let you down with this book. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series to find out what happens next in the Ali Ryan series.

This
intense detective story takes a different turn from the majority of
murder mysteries. The first character we meet is a serial killer as he
plans his first murder. With his POV and that of the lead detective,
Ali, we have a front row seat in the mental machinations of Mark and the
inquiring mind of Ali as she tries to fit the clues together.
The pace was fast moving, keeping the reader on the edge of their seat. As the story nears the end, drama increases tenfold with twists and turns in a breathless manner. The last chapter has a bomb blast that was unexpected but is understandable in hindsight. Ends like a Hitchcock movie. Excellent plot and development of characters; mystery and suspense unpredictable and engaging. I was given this book in exchange for an honest review. Five Stars.
