The Silent Wife
by Karin Slaughter
Holy cow! This crime thriller is incredibly dark and disturbing. Even though I had to put this book down every once in a while to catch my breath due to the graphic subject matter, I recharged and anxiously read through the night to find out who the inhuman murderer was.
Book 10 is cleverly told in the past and the present opening up an 8-year-old murder case that explodes into a race for time. In addition, Slaughter’s characters are intriguing and complex including medical examiner, Dr. Sara Linton’s struggles of investigating her dead husband’s past cases and Georgia Bureau of Investigations Agent Will Trent’s insecurities about Sara’s feelings for him while he’s trying to uncover clues almost a decade old to find an extremely smart, meticulous, and brutal killer.
Believe it or not, this is my first Karin Slaughter novel and it will not be the last. The Silent Wife is a gripping, suspenseful, and intense crime thriller with plenty of twists. It made me angry, it made me sad, it made me sick to my stomach, and it had me completely engrossed right up until the incredibly shocking ending.
Thank you to Ms. Slaughter for giving me the opportunity to read this book with no expectation of a positive review.
