In Murder by a Hundred Cuts, a murder mystery novel by R. Weir, private eye Jarvis Mann is a witness in the trial of serial killer Simon Lions, known as the Front Range Butcher. A witness was found brutally murdered, and graphic pictures and a message were left for Jarvis before the trial started. Jarvis was certain that a new serial killer was imitating the Front Range Butcher and that the killer was sending Jarvis a message. Meanwhile, Corrine hired Jarvis to follow her husband because she was certain he was having an affair. Corrine’s husband had withdrawn large amounts from their joint account, and she wanted proof of his affair. Jarvis had his hands full with finding the identity of the new serial killer and following Corrine’s husband.
Murder by a Hundred Cuts by R. Weir is fast-paced and action-packed. It has all the elements of a well-written detective mystery, and the suspense kept me on the edge of my seat. I was hooked from the start and was kept guessing until the very end. With all the twists and turns, I never knew what would happen next, and I turned the pages as fast as I could. The characters were authentic and relatable. Jarvis went out of his way to help Corrine with her husband, plus doing everything possible to track down the serial killer. As if that was not enough, Jarvis also had to testify against the Front Range Butcher. Different subplots were masterfully woven into the main story, and the chapters flowed into each other. This was such a suspenseful read and gave me much more than I expected.
