Edge of Sleep

John Becker is a man with a strange background. His childhood keeps him up nights, afraid of the dark. And yet, he has an uncanny ability to get into the heads of the killers he's asked to track.But this ability takes its tol on him. So when the FBI call him in, it's because they really need the help. In this book it's to track down a killer they are calling Lamont Cranston, a kidnapper and killer of young boys. Only his profile doesn't seem to be working. Why? Because this is no typical killer. So while Becker struggles with his past and why he can't wrap his head around this case, another boy's life is in the balance.This book, like Wiltse's others, has great pacing and keeps you wanting to urge the characters on. A wonderful ending as well.Well worth the time to read, just be prepared to want more!jon jordan

I loved reading this book. I read the books "Into the Fire" and this one out of order. Now is this the faulty, complex and human hero that I have come to love. I don't read thrillers for goody-two shoes protagonists. We all have evil inside of us and whether we choose to act upon that evil thought or restrain ourselves is what makes us moral or immoral, IMO. Becker and Crist while full of fault are moral they acknowledge the dark side that resides in all of us. This is one good book!

WILTSE TELLS A STORY OF TWO KILLER, THAT BECKER MUST MAKE HIMSELF UNDERSTAND. ONE OF THE BEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ.

After reading Edge of Sleep I rushed out to buy all of his available titles. This book takes the serial killer to the next level- and there is something extra creepy in the fact that it is a woman. I can't drive down the highway without thinking about this book. Becker is a fabulous character that you can really feel for. Read this book now.

This is the first, and certainly not the last, of Wiltse's books I have read. It is spell binding, and kept me holding my breath until I finished it. Highly recommended to anyone that likes true to life fictional books. John Becker is a marvelous, intelligent character. His life experiences strongly influences the way that he relates to the victims in the story - fascinating! This book will keep you awake at nights, until you've finished it....hope you're a speed reader.
