Book Review : Manhattan Mayhem

Book Review : Manhattan Mayhem
 

Title - Manhattan Mayhem
Author - A. Shane Etter

“Manhattan Mayhem” by A. Shane Etter is an intense and gripping thriller. The story follows Detective Rossi and his NYPD informants—Bookworm and Reefer—who are pulled back into action after a call from Rossi. A new killer, known only as The Swordsman, is on the loose. Rossi pays the five hundred dollars as down payment to seek their help on the case.

The Swordsman—real name Gage Brody—is a cold-blooded psychopath working for an air conditioning maintenance company. He kills to exert power and control over others. Tourist hotspots are his hunting grounds, and he shows no bias when selecting victims. Age, gender, or race—none of it matters to him.

Now, Brody is searching for his ninth victim. Will Detective Rossi and his team be able to stop this remorseless killer before he strikes again?

This story had me hooked from beginning to end. The writing is sharp, the pacing relentless, and there’s never a dull moment. The book’s cover is eye-catching, and I especially loved the character of Rossi—complex, determined, and deeply human. A fast-paced read I highly recommend.

Rating - 5/5

Thanks for reading.
