Reviews for Todd Travis’ thrilling CREATURES OF APPETITE: “You’re used to clever plots, complex characters, twisted cases and brilliant writing. Few things can surprise you, because most times you figure out who the murderer is before the book ends. Well, let me tell you something: ‘Creatures of Appetite’ by Todd Travis is like nothing you’ve read before. Prepare yourself to be hooked from the … from the very first pages, to forget that you need to eat or sleep, and to be taken by surprise by a twisted ending that you could have never guessed.” —Jo Ammons, NY Books Examiner
“If you start reading this book thinking that you’ll be able to put it down before bedtime, you’re wrong. You’ll only be able to fall asleep after you turn the last page. Usually, readers who read a lot of crime novels gain the ability to guess how everything is going to end, or at least suspect. It’s not going to happen with “Creatures of Appetite”, because the ending will come as a shock.” —Top Books Worth Reading
“No, as a reader you won’t guess who the murderer is before Jacob Thorne puts two and two together, but that’s not what makes Creatures of Appetite stand out in its genre. What makes it really worth reading is on the very last pages.” —All Fantasy Worlds
They call it the Heartland Child Murders.
Everyone else calls it a nightmare.
Locked doors don’t stop him.
He leaves no trace behind.
He only takes little girls.
His nickname …
The Iceman.
A deranged serial killer roams wintry rural Nebraska, targeting little girls, with a demented purpose no one can fathom.
FBI Special Agent EMMA KANE, a former DC cop considered to be damaged goods, is assigned to babysit burned-out profiler JACOB THORNE as they both fly to Nebraska to catch this maniac. Thorne is erratic, abrasive and unpredictably brilliant, but what he and Kane find in the heartland is much more than anyone bargained for, especially when the Iceman challenges them personally, where it hurts most.
The clock is ticking and a little girl’s life is on the line.
And maybe even more with that, once they find out what he’s really up to.

Well paced read. I found myself not being able to put it down. The ending of book one had me so surprised that I sat stunned for a few minutes. Can’t wait to read the next one.
No one will be ready for the twist on the last page. Don’t cheat and look, read the book first!
Very good read, kind of messed up!!
What a plot twist. I was completely surprised by the end. I will read more by the author. I couldn’t put it down.
Unbelievable
Good

a bit crude
LOVED this book and it’s subsequent series. Very dark and twisted but very good.
This book would have to be one of the scariest books I have read, can’t wait to read
books 2,3, and 4.
Great characters and a chilling killer made this a great read. Fans of the tv series Instinct should love it.
Loved this book and the two protagonists. Look forward to reading the next book in the series
Enjoyed the story and it was made really interesting by the reader, vocalist, or whatever the voice guy is called. He did an excellent job, stressing appropriate syllables and using believable voices.
Loved this book. I couldn’t puy it down.
Well written, good characters, more than one unexpected twist. It has some graphic violence which isn’t over done and is appropriate to the story. The plot is well paced and those who enjoy police procedurals will find it a good read.
This book was way better than I was expecting. I’m going to be reading more from this author.
Very Good Read
