I just (30' ago) finished Le tueur intime, by Claire Favan. Since I'm French native speaker (Belgian), read it in French although I mostly read in English (but when the author is French, better to read the original version). My opinion is mixed, on the story itself, I never considered giving up, I wanted to learn what happens next so a good page turner. I, however, had more difficulties with the writing style which I do not enjoyed that much. I also found that there was a bit too much repeated details on the crimes. After finishing it, I thought that the hero found too easily the solution and that some stuff were poorly studied by the author and thus there was a lack of realism.
What's next, I don't know, maybe I will (as often) find it in this community ;)
