Karen Slaughter is one of my favorite authors and it is always nice to go back and ‘visit’ with characters you’ve enjoyed in past books. It is pretty action packed but the Lena character is just too dark for me. I’ll continue to read her books but hopefully with some new characters.
Characteristicly strong work from this author that delivers an engrossing read. While I’m aware there are other books containing these characters, I felt complete with this one, not compelled to read another. Depiction of an ever-present role of manufactured and delivered illegal drugs throughout our country receives strong attention.
I always enjoy books by Karen Slaughter.
I love all this authors books but this one takes you to a place you could actually see yourself in. Loved it.
Not as good as some of her other books
All of Karin Slaughter’s books are great. Interesting stories and wonderful complex characters
I love Karen’s books.
