The second section I would like to focus on is the introduction of Keith London. This is an important section of the book because it is the first chapter in the view point of the killers, Eric and Eddie, more specifically Eddie. All of the chapters including the murderers are in the point of view of Eddie. Eddie becomes a very important part of the book because she is our door to Erics mind, he is the mastermind of all of the murders. Eric is quiet, anti-social, angry, and most importantly the single most intense sadist I have ever read about.
This is also a significant section in the book because Keith London becomes their next victim. It is very interesting to get to experience how they lured Keith into trust. That is an important part of Cardinal and Delormes case, the fact that two our of three of the known victims of these murderers all followed without a struggle. Katie Pine was "abducted" from the county fair, and Billy La Belle was "kidnapped" from the Algonquin Bay shopping mall parking lot. Eric and Eddie meet Keith in a seedy bar in a sketchy part of the town. Keith was in the process of travelling from coast to coast and all he meant was to make a quick over night stop in Algonquin Bay. Eric and Eddie offer Keith a place to stay for the night, little does Keith know, he will not be leaving that little home in the outskirts of Algonquin Bay unharmed.

Does the reader sympathise at all with London, or is the novel more aboud Cardinal and Delorme?
