This gritty novel of violence against women is a raw but revelatory exploration -- chilling, detailed, and difficult. The relationship between GBI investigator Will Trent and medical examiner Sara Linton continues to evolve, complicated by a cold case involving a corrupt law enforcement team led by Jeffrey Tolliver, Sara's murdered first husband. As always, Slaughter's characters, plot, and pacing are exceptional but this is a really rough road to travel.
i like a lot about this book. the police procedural part is great, albeit gratuitously grisly. the love stories, i thought, only got in the way. and there was too little of Will Trent. he's the most interesting character in the whole series. sadly, he gets short shrift here.
