My first Karin Slaughter read. Gripping suspense novel starring GBI agent Will Trent. Heavy topics. See content warnings. Characters were enjoyable though not complex. Storyline was fast paced and gripping.

It has been a while since I dipped back into a book in the Will Trent series and despite that it felt very easy to get back into it with the familiar characters. This story starts out one way.... and I wasnt very sure where it was going, kept trying to link it to the title of the book... then that sort of makes sense towards the end, where the book is entirely not what I expected. She says this story only lasts over a few days well boy, it felt way longer than that with the amount of information our team figures out ! 
It was a unique and sad story with a lot of moving pieces and characters. Lots of trigger warnings as usual for a Ms Slaughter book.
