3.0

This was my first Karin Slaughter novel. It started out a bit meh — felt a bit forced and several of the descriptions and adjectives seemed repetitive. After getting through the first part the plot began to come together and didn’t seem as forced. The timeliness of the book — set during Covid — was also interesting. 

Fast paced, good character and plot development. Challenging themes.
