This is a scream of a novel in both sences of the word. Norman, the psychopath is truly creepy, cruel and nasty, everything you would expect. But what Baker pulls off here is to get us to recognize traces of ourselves in him.
Plus, it’s very funny.

Minus Zero is the sequel to Poet in the Gutter and the second novel in the Sam
Turner series.
It’s about a psychopath looking for Snow White and finding Sam Turner keeps getting in
his way.
Enjoy. The rest will follow soon.

Poet in the Gutter – Chapter 60
“Geordie was on a stretcher being loaded into an ambulance, there were tubes coming out of him, and the ambulance driver was holding some kind of bottle above the kid’s head.”

Things seem to be coming to a head, here. And there’s another killing into the bargain.
