If you thought "silence Of The Lambs" was disturbing, you are in for a big pant-shitting scary experience reading this almost unbearably gory book. Man eating pigs, cutting and eating one's nose and calling it "chewy like chicken" or whatever, eating a dude's brain while he is alive and in a romantic setting at that and many more bile-in-your throat moments.... all awaiting your kind indulgence as Mr. Lecter would have preferred to say it. I haven't delved into the psycho thriller or even horror genres that much so bear with me if I say that this book had me shitting bricks by the time I finished it. Four stars Mr. Harris for being so good at writing that you scared me.
