I can’t believe we’re on book 11 of the Will Trent series. Sara Linton and the Grant County series is what got me hooked on gruesome crime thrillers and they are still an incredible read. Now don’t get me wrong I did love this book but the graphic rape scene descriptions were a bit much. I know Karin Slaughter doesn’t shy away from a gory murder and I normally love a gruesome book but there were several scenes that were an extremely uncomfortable read. It is obviously well written and makes you feel so much empathy for the women. It also shows how difficult it is to get justice for sexual crimes. So definitely bear in mind triggers if you were thinking of reading this book.
As for the rest of the book, it was a great read. I loved getting to see more of Faith and her family. She’s such a lovable character. Amanda was also adorable with her wedding help. It was interesting getting to learn more about Sara and her past. The story is packed full of twists and turns and extremely well written characters. There were so many villains that I didn’t know who to hate more. The explosive ending was still a surprise though.

I always think Karin Slaughter will never write a book as good as her last, and I’m always wrong. And I loved the Easter eggs that related to the show. So sad I finished it so quickly!
