Books by Mo Hayder
“You have to take a very deep breath before you read The Treatment. Mo Hayder’s books are generally violent, but The Treatment takes it to another level. If you can get through it without feeling disturbed or physically sick at some point, then credit to you. Mo Hayder wrote police procedure astonishingly well. Her research was amazing. How on Earth did she know all this stuff? But at the same time, the story is just astonishing. It’s got another dark, disturbed lead detective, Jack Caffery. He’s morally a bit off. My editor wouldn’t allow me to write some of the things he does. The book is such a mindfuck. You’ll come away going, ‘What the hell was that??’ It’s the most brilliantly done, disturbed book you’ll ever read.” Read more...
