But the killer is a phantom hiding in plain sight, and Darger’s partner, a grizzled profiler named Victor Loshak, seems to be hiding a dark secret.Ĭombining dark psychological thriller elements into a police procedural (well, an FBI procedural), Dead End Girl gives readers the goosebumps in tense scenes and keeps the pages turning at a ferocious rate. Violet Darger, a profiler with the FBI’s Behavior Analysis Unit, investigates a series of brutal murders in a backwoods Ohio town. Inspired by Harris’ Manhunter novel, LT Vargus and Tim McBain released Dead End Girl, the first novel in the Violet Darger serial killer thriller series in the spring of 2017. Many of these novels are free to read if you subscribe to Kindle Unlimited. Today we’ll look at five serial killer thriller series that do justice to the Hannibal Lecter novels.

But the series didn’t explode in popularity until 1991 when the movie adaptation of Silence of the Lambs, starring Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins, hit theaters. In 1981, Thomas Harris penned Red Dragon, the first dark thriller of the series that would become known as the Hannibal Lecter novels.
