About this listen
WATCH WILL TRENT ON ABC!
New York Times bestselling author Karin Slaughter brings back Will Trent and Sara Linton in this superb and timely thriller full of devious twists, disturbing secrets, and shocking surprises you won’t see coming.
A mysterious kidnapping
On a hot summer night, a scientist from the Centers for Disease Control is grabbed by unknown assailants in a shopping center parking lot. Vanished into thin air, the authorities are desperate to save the doctor.
A devastating explosion
One month later, the serenity of a sunny Sunday afternoon is shattered by the boom of a ground-shaking blast—followed by another seconds later. One of Atlanta’s busiest and most important neighborhoods —the location of Emory University, two major hospitals, the FBI headquarters, and the CDC—has been bombed.
A diabolical enemy
Medical examiner Sara Linton and her partner Will Trent, an investigator with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, rush to the scene—and into the heart of a deadly conspiracy that threatens to destroy thousands of innocent lives. When the assailants abduct Sara, Will goes undercover to save her and prevent a massacre—putting his own life on the line for the woman and the country he loves.

In the city of Atlanta, young women are dying—at the hands of a killer who signs his work with a single, chilling act of mutilation. Leaving behind enough evidence to fuel a frenzied police hunt, this cunning madman is bringing together dozens of lives, crossing the boundaries of wealth and race. And the people who are chasing him must cross those boundaries too. Among them is Michael Ormewood, a veteran detective whose marriage is hanging by a thread—and whose arrogance and explosive temper are threatening his career.

Leigh Collier has worked hard to build what looks like a normal life.

Good story, great performance
Overall I am happy I have read this. This was my first Karin Slaughter novel - though I know she has a whole series starring the protagonists. I felt as though it was easy enough to pick up as a stand-alone.
I definitely grew attached to these characters and wanted to follow their stories. I wasn’t as fond of the viewpoint of Faith and found it was just there to give us information. Her story-line was a little boring but I suppose served its purpose.
I have listened to Kathleen Early before and now don’t know how I will move onto another narrator. Her voice is comforting, easy to listen to with just the right touch of theatrics.

I’ve read several of the Will Trent series, I really enjoy everyone that I’ve read so far. I wish they were presented to us in order of them being written, however the characters are fun and I enjoy the read, and the reader is very good at her job, she makes the story believable and entertaining.

I could listen to this woman speak all day.
The storyline was captivating, educational (who knew?!) and overall incredible. I felt like the end was a little rushed, but overall I’d definitely recommend.

Okay story
I like the author and her books but the writing style bothers me sometimes. So much chatter between scenes in the characters head that wouldn’t be realistic in real life. The situations where someone is undercover and basically always blowing it and giving themselves away because they can’t control their emotions. It’s silly

So much excessive violence. So many internal musings. Not enough meat. Long and hard to get through.

Long and Boring
The narrative starts off interestingly enough but quickly goes downhill. I stopped and restarted it so many times and simply was happy when it was over. Great concept but not great writing

This book should have been half the length
So much unnecessary detail for a pretty boring story. It intrigued me at the beginning but then it just dragged on and I just wanted it over 😏
