A Faint Cold Fear by Karin Slaughter

1.0

---

I dislike every character, especially HATE Jeffery, the case isn't the main focus of the story, there isn't anything positive in any aspect of the story, the violence and negative emotions are excessive for me, and there is not a single adult character who is emotionally stable or able to conduct a healthy relationship. Also racism was brought up, but sidelined and sexism and victim blaming played a huge part in the story without being addressed as sexism. There is police brutality and stupidity. The case is solved not by clues, but by chance, it's just one guy reexamining a room and finding the right question to ask the right people. That's it, not really a build up of the case, just a lot of characters being terrible to each other and themselves.
