IM Horror Book Review

The Internet Is the New Meat Market for Gay Men Now a Killer Is Turning the Meat Market into a Meat Wagon. 

One by one, he’s killing them. Lurking in the digital underworld of   Men4HookUpNow.com, he lures, seduces, charms, reaching out through instant   messages to the unwary. He’s just another guy.   

They invite him over. He’s just another trick. Harmless. They’re dead   wrong. 

When the first bloody body surfaces, openly gay Chicago Police Department   detective Ed Comparetto is called in to investigate. Sickened by the   butchered mess of one of his brothers left on display in a bathtub, he   seeks relief outside where the young man who discovered the body waits to   tell him the story of how he found his friend. But who is this   witness…and did he play a bigger part in the murder than he’s letting   on? 

For Comparetto, this encounter with a witness is the beginning of a   nightmare. Because this witness did more than just show up at the scene of   the crime; he set the scene. And maybe, he’s more than just a   killer…maybe he’s dead himself. 

Comparetto is on a journey to discover the truth, a truth that he needs to   discover before he loses his career, his boyfriend, his sanity…his life.  Because in this killer’s world, IM doesn’t stand for instant message…it   stands for instant murder.
