A Good Story and the Supernatural part of the story is Scarily Almost Believable. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
This is a debut novel???? WHAT??? This book pulled me in from the start and I couldn’t put it down! This book has everything in it, suspense, mystery, paranormal! Talk about being on the edge of your seat the whole time! Every time you think you know what’s coming, YOU DON”T!! Such a great read! I can’t wait to see what GK Curry comes out with next!
This is one of these books that I love! It keeps you on the edge of your seat and wanting more. You have to know who’s killing these people and why. I loved how caring the detectives were with the families of the victims. They had respect and handled it accordingly. Even with the witness. You can tell how truly caring this police force. One of their guys go down and the whole crew comes running to help. They are determined this killer and bring justice to the families. I loved every minute of this book and the mystery that followed it. It was a great read!!
I really liked how things kick off from the get go and you really get to know the characters Shaun and Danny well and the supporting characters really round off it all. The killer has you drawn into the suspense as well and I loved their macabre killing signature! Even though this is a debut book the author has done really well with it and at the end of the book you are wanting to read the next in the series so bring on the next one!
As a debut novel, GK Curry has a writing future. His attention to detail in his storytelling would rival a seasoned writer. Not normally a crime /detective book person, I found I really was drawn into this story and didn’t want to put it down. Definitely worth the read. I look forward to more from this author.
A creepy paranormal mystery that will grab you from the first chapter. This book was more than I expected a gripping page turner that I didn’t want to put down. I love a good crime story but throw in some paranormal and you’ve got a winner. A first read for me by GK Curry but definitely not the last.
Drained is GK Curry’s debut novel. This is a great detective/thriller/suspense/supernatural book. People are being murdered in a college town in Missouri. Detectives Shaun Hawthorne and Danny Viviani have been assigned to the cases. No clues have been found at the deaths, other than the victims have had their brain fluid drained, until the case behind the bakery. Finally some evidence. You learn alot about Hawthorne and Viviani, the captain, the computer whiz. Will Danny and Shaun live to tell about this case? Will some of the witnesses live? Will Danny and Shaun solve the case before many more victims? This book kept me riveted and reading and turning pages as quickly as I could. I wanted to know what happened and who the killer was. This is really one of my favorite genre’s and I realized as I was reading that I had not read a great suspenseful book in a while, and I need to add more to what I am reading as I have missed them. I am really hoping this is a start of a series, so I can read more. I loved the characters of the Detectives and really most of the department that we read about – Epps, Medical Examiner, Coroner. I believe this is the start of a great career for GK Curry. Already really looking forward to his next book.
The book has it all. This book has mystery, twist and turns, the feels everything you could want in a supernatural detective novel. Once you start you wont be able to put it down!
This book kept me tryin to gather clues and guessing the whole time. I wanted to solve the case and find the killer right along with the detectives. It easily kept my interest even though it isn’t my usual genre.
Wow. I don’t read to many mystery stories. I read this in one sitting. I wanted to know who it was. Great characters and story line. I definitely kept me hooked.
Danny and Shaun are partners in the Chicago cop world. There is a ton of details in this book. Some you don’t need like what a character is wearing or doing. This is a first for this author. The thrill was there and truly enjoyed the story, but I felt like I had to skim some just to get through some of the details that weren’t needed. It entertained me very much and when I got to read it I couldn’t put it down. I do like gruesome detective work and need more on the edge of my seat but did enjoy it.
This mystery will keep you guessing. The story and writing flowed so well. What makes a good mystery for me is not being able to figure out who the murder is and this one will keep you guessing. Mr. Curry throws in a twist you don’t see coming. As the story progresses it gets more and more full of action at a fast past.
-Intriguing charcters
-Plenty of action
-Keeps you guessing.
This was a decent read. I couldn’t wait to finish it. I felt like the ending left me wanting more and it kind of just ended. I hope there will be another one.
I absolutely loved this debut novel from GK Curry!! The writing was excellent and I can’t wait to read what comes next from this author. It had such a mysterious story line that I couldn’t put it down once I started reading it. I love supernatural and mystery books, so this book was a dream come true for me. You should definitely read this book!!
Loved it! It is different a girl as the serial killer, and a subhuman. I can’t wait to read more about Detective Hawthorne.

Once I started, I Couldn’t Not Put it Down!! Right from the start, it Grabs you and Never Lets Go!!

I read everything as long as it keeps my attention and the suspense in this novel was everything.
For a debut, this was a pretty well written. The the suspenseful plot, primary and secondary characters, and the supernatural aspect all were components that made this book work. The manner in which the serial killer targets and executes is will definitely have your attention.
Really, really good debut novel by G.K. Curry…. a fast paced, nail biter.
Well thought out characters, great rush and ride.
I look forward to more in this series.
Definitely adding Criminal thriller to my love list.
I really enjoyed this book. It’s the first one written by this author and I look forward to reading more of his books in the future. We have a college town in Missouri plagued by a serial killer. This killer drugs the victims and then drains the brain fluid. Detectives Shaun Hawthorne and Danny Viviani are tasked to find this killer and are very frustrated because this killer has not made a mistake…yet. We have a supportive Captain, a great assistant, a reluctant witness, and some creative policing to solve a case.
