After That Night
by Karin Slaughter
Trigger Warnings: Domestic Violence, Rape
This was a lot. Karin Slaughter does tend to pull you in so you want to know what happened. This made me think of Law and Order SVU or maybe Criminal Minds. Keep in mind this does have spoilers. Couldn’t find a way to really get my thoughts out without them.
So you are telling me people this smart and this successful couldn’t come up with something better to do than create a Rape Club? These accomplished doctors planned out something where they stalked these women, sent them messages that made them realize they were being watched, then snatched them? And they got away with it, for years. So long that they were now ready to bring their sons in.
Most of the story you figure out pretty early on. The only twist that took me awhile was finding out one of their wives kept them organized with this crap. As a woman, how could you not only condone this, but assist with it out of some weird love for your husband? She was so glib about it and didn’t seem to have one bit of remorse for those poor women.
