Late May. Three hours before sunup and the river was deserted. Dark barges strained upstream on their moorings and a spring tide gently nosed small sloops free of the sludge they slept in. A mist lifted from the water, rolling inland, past unlit chandlers, over the deserted Millennium Dome and on across lonely wastelands, strange, lunar landscapes — until it settled, a quarter of a mile inland amongst the ghostly machinery of a half-derelict construction yard.

Series: Jack Caffery Book Number: 1 Read this book for: extra-creepy serial killers, solid police procedure, detectives with a troubled personal life Quick Review: Mo Hayder writes a tight, fast-paced page-turner of a thriller, but this one is not a book for everyone — be prepared for a lot of very dark, very shocking topics.
BIRDMAN is the debut novel from Mo Hayder — a crime thriller that uses shock as its main device to propel a story of horrific brutality and graphic violence forward, but remains a decent read with its combination of writing, technical procedural detail and fairly well-developed characters. I finished it in a day! I want to start this review with a warning: this is not your average cozy mystery.
Be prepared to be shocked, appalled and generally grossed out by the content and descriptions of the victims and their treatment by this particular killer. Overall, the writing is perfectly balanced and paced, with short chapters and fast-moving action. One thing I did really appreciate was the impact of those mundane moments at home. The way the pacing crashed to a halt around the home scenes of Caffery was a really good way for readers to actually experience the way that detectives can become wrapped up in the case to the point of being unable to function in their own lives outside of work.
It really helps to immerse you in the proceedings. Jack Caffery is also a fairly engaging character. His team, while not particularly memorable, also felt fairly realistic. It also goes some way toward trying to help the reader understand their motivation, which is a near-impossible task given the nature of his acts.
If you can stomach it though, make sure you have some time because once you start, you will not move until you finish the very last page! Share this:.

Birdman (Jack Caffery Series #1)

Birdman 3 By: Mo Hayder Seven days, twenty-four-hour standby, wakeful nights: and slam straight into the case, no time to catch a breath. And it was looking like a complex one. He towelled his hair and shook his head to free the water in his ears. Stop thinking about it now. Stop letting it chase its tail around your head. Maddox was right, he needed to rest.
