About this product

Product Information

Lou Ford is the deputy sheriff of a small town in Texas.  The worst thing most people can say against him is that he's a little slow and a little boring.  But, then, most people don't know about the sickness --the sickness that almost got Lou put away when he was younger.  The sickness that is about to surface again. An underground classic since its publication in 1952, The Killer Inside Me is the book that made Jim Thompson's name synonymous with the roman noir .

    Classic weird noir

    This mystery doesn't really conceal the identity of the culprit, so it's a whydunit instead of a whodunit. In this town, don't ever get into trouble, and don't cuss at the authorities. Bad things may follow. Very good novel.

    Stephen King recommended

    This was a book by one of Stephen King's favorite authors mentioned in King's book "Secret Windows", a kind of new writer's guide. "Killer" was good and flowed nicely and had some suspense moments and surprises. The portrait of the killer's personality shows that - the person you least expect, could be more cold-blooded than you thought possible. Creepy and a good read, worth checking out.

    Killer living in psychological trap

    Excellent well-written book that kept me up reading past dark.. The killer was not your average killer, he kind of reminds me of Dexter,,,,,the killer was overcome at times but did not really go without some insight...some thoughts that were counter to his death spree. This is rare in that most killers we read about appear to be one-sided bent on murder types with no real personality

    A good way to pass some time.

    A decent story but not great.
