About this listen
WATCH WILL TRENT ON ABC!
The New York Times bestselling author of Pieces of Her returns with the next novel in the Will Trent series that “comes with just the right amount of twists, turns, shocks, surprises and domestic thrill and shrill” (Parade).
He watches. He waits. He takes. Who will be next . . .
Atlanta, Georgia. Present day. A young woman is brutally attacked and left for dead. The police investigate but the trail goes cold. Until a chance assignment takes GBI investigator Will Trent to the state penitentiary, and to a prisoner who says he recognizes the MO. The attack looks identical to the one he was accused of eight years earlier. The prisoner’s always insisted that he was innocent, and now he’s sure he has proof. The killer is still out there.
As Will digs into both crimes it becomes clear that he must solve the original case in order to reach the truth. Yet nearly a decade has passed—time for memories to fade, witnesses to vanish, evidence to disappear. And now he needs medical examiner Sara Linton to help him hunt down a ruthless murderer. But when the past and present collide, everything Will values is at stake …]

Story
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.

Story
Leigh Collier has worked hard to build what looks like a normal life. She has a good job as a defense attorney, a daughter doing well in school, and even her divorce is relatively civilized - her life is just as unremarkable as she’d always hoped it would be. But Leigh’s ordinary life masks a childhood that was far from average...a childhood tarnished by secrets, broken by betrayal, and finally torn apart by a devastating act of violence.

One of my favourites!
Excellent story and left me guessing until the very end. Love the romance with Will and Sarah between all the violence and darkness. Happy to learn more about Jeffrey and Sarah's past. Excellent read overall. Kathleen is an excellent narrator and Karin Slaughter is so talented as a writer. A perfect combination.

Gripping.
I was swept up into the story in spite of my problem establishing that there were two time lines and I could have done with a lot less yelling. I thought the authors choice of subject and her way of presenting the horrific details of the crimes were authentic in detail and police procedure. the victims could have been any one I know. Choosing a campus for the location was also realistic as it is often the first time young women are alone and so completely vulnerable.

love/sad
love that i got to listen to Kathleen Early narrate this great book by Karin Slaughter!!
sad that its over!
my first Slaughter book was The Good Daughter, which i enjoyed and fell in love with the narration. so i looked for more of her books... started with the Wil Trent series. fell in love with the characters. then, while waiting for this book to come out i listened to the Grant County series. of course i wish i had listened to it it first but i'm glad i did listen to it so i knew the complete back story of Jeffrey and Sara... oh and ugh, Lena!
...let the Kathleen/Karin detox begin.
