anniecase45 's review for:

A Faint Cold Fear by Karin Slaughter
4.0

Jeffrey and Sarah continue to struggle with their relationship, while a series of suspicious crimes at the local college seem to point to recently-fired Detective Lena Adams, who is determined to sabotage herself at every turn.

Loved this one! I felt like it was tighter than some of Slaughter's works, focusing on the nail-biting cases at hand. I also loved and continue to love how she portrays Lena, who is so frustrating and relatable and maddening and lovable all at the same time. While Jeffrey and Sarah's troubles start to become redundant after a while, Lena's journey is always fresh and interesting to me. I can't wait to find out what lies ahead for her!
