I am never disappointed by a Karin Slaughter novel, and though it was difficult picking only one from the Will Trent series, this one has stuck with me more than any other.
It has it all: suspense, love, danger, cult vibes, a multilayered and complex plot, Sara’s brilliance in the midst of life-threatening danger, creative and unique evil plans by the antagonist, threats to Will and Sara’s relationship, humor, and more.
I was on the edge of my seat from the beginning and forgot about the real world while I was sucked into the dark world crafted by Slaughter’s immensely talented brain. This series installment is endlessly gripping and thrilling, and I loved every second of it.
It begins with an abduction. The routine of a family shopping trip is shattered when Michelle Spivey is snatched as she leaves the mall with her young daughter. The police search for her, her partner pleads for her release, but in the end...they find nothing. It's as if she disappeared into thin air.
A month later, on a sleepy Sunday afternoon, medical examiner Sara Linton is at lunch with her boyfriend Will Trent, an agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. But the serenity of the summer's day is broken by the wail of…
I rarely find a book with a plot so unique that there’s nothing to compare it to, and that’s exactly what I found with this next book. The pace is fairly slow and leisurely, but I didn’t mind because I loved living in these pages.
V.E. Schwab has such a beautiful, elegant way of weaving a story that feels like a classic and a fresh new book all at once. It was one of the most creative stories I’ve ever read, and I adored the characters in this book (Luc is my favorite).
I found myself thinking more deeply about life, love, hope, and humanity than I have in a while. I didn’t know what to expect in the end, but it was heartbreakingly perfect.

I’m a big dark romance fan, and this is one of my favorites. The main character, Lana Myers, is my hero and one of the most BAMF women I’ve ever read. Her revenge plot was fantastic and so creative that it stuck in my mind for weeks after I finished.
I loved the romance, especially the tension of an FBI agent unknowingly dating the serial killer he’s hunting and the dynamics between all the multi-dimensional side characters. The book was super-fast-paced and thrilling, keeping me on the edge of my seat the entire time.
I tore through this collection of novellas in less than two days, and I genuinely wish I could erase it from my memory to read it again for the first time.
They took too much. Left too little. I had nothing to lose...until him. ***************** ~Lana~ I didn't expect him. I didn't want to fall in love. But I can't let him go.
