I’m a big fan of this author, having reviewed another of his Detective Sheehan books, so I am already committed to reading this latest installment. Your review was excellent and highlighted all the main points that would attract readers of this genre. Many thanks for your comments.

I don't really care for murder mysteries, so I think I'll skip it, but it sounds like a very enjoyable read for fans of the genre. It's a shame about the errors, but I'm glad you enjoyed it anyway. Thank you for your review.

I have been watching and reading about serial killers as well as about the dark web. I would say they do really exist and based from the review and from the sample that I have read, it is worth the cringe. But I do not like it being exposed to the youth since they are curious and who knows what happens next.

Not a fan of crime novels and gruesome murders thanks, I’ll give this one a miss. I enjoyed how the reviewers excitement about the book came through in the review. Great writing.

I have read other books by this author, and your positive review makes me anxious to read this one. I see from the excerpt that he has included a list of characters at the beginning of the book. Your persuasive summary was a joy to read. Thanks!

Sounds like a compelling story; "The Dark Web Murders" is a murder mystery by Brian O'Hare is the fourth book in the series about Chief Inspector Jim Sheehan who's bent on getting a loose serial killer. Nice review

I read the small sample of the book and didn't think I'd be interested but after reading this review I must say that I may go ahead and buy the book. It sounds thrilling and exciting.

A well-written murder mystery with well-developed characters and full of suspense!I am glad the author did a great job of creating a compelling plot. I have not read the sample yet, but I just added this book to my TBR list. Thank you for the detailed review!

I do love a well written book filled will mystery and suspense, but I can't stomach the gruesome murders. Though to be fair I'm sure that is a small part in comparison to the investigation going on. But will still leave it to the reader's who really enjoy this genre! Thanks for the review.

I have actually heard of the dark web and I think what has been portrayed in the story is what to some people face on their daily lives. People are killed every single day. I believe that the story is an eye-opener. Thank for the review.

The book cover is neat and intriguing. The plot is new and I like that it is a standalone novel despite it being part of a series. Congrats!

I love a good murder novel! I have only read a few sample pages but it already has my curiosity piqued. I usually don't like books where the author swaps pov but it seems this one is done flawlessly. I look forward to continuing this story. Thank you for the thorough review.
