Pressestimmen
Hayder has a profound ability to shock and surprise her readers. She is the bravest writer I know. Warped ... bloodthirsty ... No matter how much you despise yourself for getting sucked into such places, Hayder is brilliant at making you read on. Daily Telegraph Hayder is the closest we've got to Stephen King ... the goriest thriller writer this side of the pond. Mirror Hayder's gory insights into the dark are compelling. Guardian
Kurzbeschreibung
When the decomposed body of a young woman is found near railway tracks just outside Bristol one morning, all indications are that she’s committed suicide. That’s how the police want it too; all neatly squared and tidied away. But DI Jack Caffery is not so sure. He is on the trail of someone predatory, someone who hides in the shadows and can slip into houses unseen. And for the first time in a very long time, he feels scared. Police Diver Flea Marley is working alongside Caffery. With the traumas of her past safely behind her, she’s beginning to wonder whether their relationship could go beyond the professional. But then she finds something that changes everything. Not only is it far too close to home for comfort – it’s so horrifying that she knows that nothing will ever be the same again. And this time, no one – not even Caffery – can help her …

I've read Mo Hayder's books with great excitement and thrill so far- but I must say "Skin" kind of disappointed me; especially since I made the mistake (?) to await the psychologically thrilling and haunting, gruesom brillancy that she had shown in "Birdman" and "The Tratment"- some of the best psycho-thrillers I've ever read, judging by the degree of horror especially. After "Ritual", I wondered already, but only just slightly then, why Hayder had obviously left the peak of horror and thriller she'd come to with those previous 2 novels- haunting still, but somehow I had hoped for MORE.
"Skin", now, reads like a sequel to "Ritual" since the story takes place about 1 weeks after what happened in "Ritual", with some (at first) promising threads leading from the one book to the other, starring Jack Caffery and Flea Marley again. Good sign, I thought- but while I kept reading, I realized I was waiting and waiting for the book to reach the peaks of horror I've been used to from Hayder. Unfortunately, I have to say she kept me waiting and waiting, always wishing for a climax, a highlight, but then- I had arrived at the end of the book. Loose ends still pending (but without any indication of a decent cliffhanger!), somewhat far-fetched subplot and solutions, I almost want to say shallow plot...Still all in all exciting, of course, and a decent crime novel- but by far not what I'd expected of Mo Hayder! Would like to give 2.5 stars if possible.

Mo Hayder has written a series of books featuring policeman Jack Caffery. I recently read "Skin" and found it a great read.
A gritty police procedural into a grim series of killings, it's set in southern England and features a female police diver, Flea Marley, who is personally implicated in the case.
The dark atmosphere and grisly plot is relieved by the ongoing development of Flea's relationship with her colleague Jack Caffery.
This thriller is strong at evoking the spirit of place, and Flea is a hard-bitten, damaged but likeable heroine, and the book has room for understated humor, too. There's a couple of unlikely details but they never spoil a great read.
