Top notch! This goes full circle, connecting the past of some of her main characters (Will, Amanda) with the present. Gruesome murders, locations and a past come real in a gripping way. Reading a book like this you realize what a lot of other writers are missing in style. Detailed in a way only few others are (among them Val McDermid). For those who have never read a book from Karin Slaughter, I recommend the whole series, but the this one can also be read as a standalone-start as the most needed parts of the characters back story is given, sometimes expanded or even corrected.
I could have read it faster, often I read these books in 1-2 long nights till early morning, but I wanted to hold on a little longer, as a lot of books are not as good as this.

One of my favorites in the Will Trent series! Loved getting background of Evelyn and Amanda from their early days!

I have sung the praises of these audiobooks for years, and this one is no exception. It did begin a little slow, and there were a lot of characters to keep up with as the setting changed. But I really enjoyed the look back, not only into Will's past, but also into Amanda's history. As we worked through Will's father's crimes, the book also gave you such great insight into Amanda's career, but also her relationship with Will. Overall, a very enjoyable listen, and I think on of the better books in the Will Trent series.
