Karin Slaughter makes it so hard to WANT to read her books. Jesus. I don’t understand the choices made in this one.

Loved the main characters and their working relationship, but the torture was to much for me to really enjoy the book.

I love the Will Trent series so much. Karin Slaughter is the queen of characters!

Another installment in the Karin Slaughter era of my thriller reading arc and she did not disappoint. I think even more than the actual mystery at hand, I loved how she developed Will and Faith in this book. I am excited to see Will move on from Angie (aka the WOAT) and get a new love interest. Will be continuing with this series and maybe starting the Grant County series as well.

 Karin Slaughter has an incredible dark imagination. Yet, I’m also sure everything she writes about is within the realm of possibility.

This book (and series) is NOT for the faint at heart. What happens within this story is truly disgusting.

I love our two protagonists. Faith Mitchell has personal stuff going on...and it is now bleeding into her work life. She's trying to find that life balance, but in the middle of the investigation...it is NOT easy.

Will Trent continues to have his issues with his dyslexia, and he's NOT inclined to ask for help (his issue with giving up control in his life), but this set of murders has truly rattled him. 

The story was VERY hard to read at times. We see how intimately it touches and changes our two protagoinists...and the many others that become involved with this story. Ugh.

Also, the police do NOT come out smelling like roses. Corruptions and incompetence is rife within the police...and it frustrates the GBI and others.

Loved this story. Cannot wait to pick up Broken.
