When you turn to the first page of EVERY DEAD THING be aware that you are entering Hannibal Lector territory with graphic descriptions of brutal torture and murder. This is another one of those grim but gripping serial killer tales where you actually get two gruesome tales for the price of one. While serial killer number one concentrates on abducting and torturing children, the second (The Traveling Man) enjoys mutilating his victims, stealing their faces and leaving them posed in historical tableau’s that appear to convey some sort of message.

Family members of the books protagonist, NYPD detective Charlie “Bird” Parker, are victims of the Traveling Man and Parker’s search for the sick perp, as he attempts to assuage his personal feelings of guilt, has led him to undertake an unsolved thirty year old case. The ultimate resolution of that case gives Parker the impetus to once again pursue the Traveling Man.

Author John Connelly skillfully juggles the large cast of unusual and interesting characters he has created, not the least of which are Angel and Louis, a couple of gay hit-men. In addition to brutal murder, this novel also offers some exploration of “second sight”, psychic episodes and thought transmission, as well as a plethora of interesting facts concerning cannibalistic cultures and regression therapy while also presenting Parker with a bit of romance in the person of criminal profiler, Rachel Wolfe.

This is one of those books that scrutinize subject matter that you love to hate. You are appalled by the explicit descriptions of brutality but find yourself engrossed in the individual personalities of the characters and drawn in by the drama, conflict and cynicism contained within the narrative.

Every Dead Thing series Charlie Parker

I knew nothing about this writer until I started reading “The Woman in the Woods” last month. I realized after reading the first few pages that this author expected us to know these men he was writing about so I was anxious to read the first book in the series. I’m reading it now but haven’t completed it. For people considering reading these books, I suggest you keep a pen and paper handy. There are so many characters that you need notes to keep track of them. I am now half way through “Every Dead Thing” and while I really love it, I may start over so I can keep a “who’s who” list. And I am curious about why Connolly hates New Orleans so much. He has nothing good to say about it. Connolly makes me think. He keeps me awake. He gives me rich, wonderful characters! I’m reading them all!

Audiobook Every Dead Thing by John Connolly

Wonderful character development, I ended up really liking Charlie and routing for him to win to “win”. Trigger warning, descriptions of the crime victims may disturb some readers (including me) but this is a great who done it and I never saw the ending until it was written on the page plus I lost many hours of sleep not being able to put the book down.

Audio Every Dead Thing narrated by Jeff Harding

Great book. Great series. It took me sometime to get used to John Connolly’s writing having just come off another authors book series. Mr. Connolly’s writing was far more complex and the characters and storylines are deeper and more complex. I am really enjoying the supernatural component that is weaved into each book. It is just enough to be very believeable and enjoyable. Mr Connolly is a terrific writer and I thoroughly enoyed Every Dead Thing and the other books in the Charlie Parker series that I have now read. I would recommend highly.

Rereading this again after such a long time was a gamble. In my mind it holds its place at the forefront of my book exhibition, encased in glass, spotlighted, stunning in its contrasting beauty and darkness. I still recommend it without hesitation and it has never left my crime fiction top ten.

Connolly is a master of the atmospheric; rich detail and imaginative expression combine to give each sentence a weight and feeling that builds and reflects upon itself until you get lost in it, totally enspelled. Written with elements of the southern gothic style, the novel blends the supernatural, scientific, and philosophical in to a modern, decayed society. He sets the scene with gritty criminality; drugs, gangs, death, perversion, and bloody violence from the outset. Each part is seamlessness integrated, so that the local, natural, and created history of the novel have equal veracity. It is this that allows the supernatural to enter the story with creeping feet, settle into its place without a sound, and then sit there with such assurance that you believe its always been there and has every right to be. Initially focusing these more ghostly aspects through New Orleans is effective, it is a place where people are known to believe darker things, where the line between the real world and the other is blurred, or even celebrated.

The main character is, himself, an example of faded humanity, an alcoholic who lost his family and police career to a serial killer’s inventive action. The themes of the book are revealed in his character; the scientific in his investigative process, the philosophical through his inward discussions of morality and justice, the supernatural through his direct connection with his dead wife and daughter. His reflection, the Travelling Man, is pictured in a similar fashion. The killer utilises the dissected human form as a metaphysical expression of human nature and the barbaric world, with himself playing the role of demon. The nature of and interconnectedness of Charlie Parker and the killers he encounters is one which is explored throughout the series, a question yet to be answered. Yet when we meet him, there is a glimmer of potential. But of what? Violence? Most definitely. Redemption? That is where the hope lies, for us and for him.
