Review: The Poet by Lisa Renee Jones

Synopsis

“The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth.” -Jean Cocteau

Some call him friend or boss. Some call him husband or dad. Some call him son, even a favorite son.
But the only title that matters to him is the one the media has given him: The Poet.

A name he earned from the written words he leaves behind after he kills that are as dark and mysterious as the reason he chooses his victims. One word, two, three, a story in a poem, a secret that only Detective Samantha Jazz can solve. Because he’s writing this story for her.

She just doesn’t know it yet.

Review

I'm not a fan of thrillers/crime fiction. This book was my adventure, and it turned out far better than I expected. Amazing! Simply amazing. That's what it is; a page turner. Something you wouldn't be able to put down once you started reading. The story, the characters, the premise, and all the twists and turns will keep you hooked until the very end. I highly recommend this book. It's a must-read mystery/suspense novel.

They're calling him 'The Poet.' But that's not all he is. He is a master in search of an apprentice. He has a destiny, and he is going to do anything to fulfill the task he has been given. Right now, he is fixated on Detective Jazz. She doesn't know it yet, but everything he is doing, he is doing it for her benefit. She will learn soon.

It's a very well-written crime fiction. A story about a serial killer and a detective. How their lives are connected and where is this leading? The answers might not be what you expect, but they will definitely keep you entertained. I loved every second of this story.

P.S. I received a complimentary copy of this book via NetGalley.
