Such a stunning thriller; Slaughter has the innate ability to write extremely unlikeable peripheral characters that you love to hate. The dual story line between Emily and Andrea kept me o the edge of my seat the whole time. A dark novel with a great plot.

Sure! Fine! A little silly, a little predictable, but it passed the time and kept me engaged.

3.0

Sequel to Pieces of Her, however, can be read out of order. It confines the story of US Marshall Andrea Oliver.  The reader is going between present day and 40 years ago as Andrea tries to solve a cold case murder of Emily vaughn. There are a lot of characters with different and some complex back stories to keep up with. While I thought this book was better than Pieces of Her, I felt there was still some unanswered questions and it could have been better with how long it was.
