I was initially disappointed with this book. The first couple of chapters had that sort of clumsy and obvious Romance trope of two lovers who had ended things badly but still longed for one another, and I really dislike Romance genre mixed into my mystery-thriller genre. But before long I was thorou...
by Karin Slaughter This started out sounding like something you would find under 'Womens Fiction' and I wondered if I had made a mistake. Andrea had chased her glamorous dreams to New York City and failed, winding up waiting tables. When her mother telephoned her with disturbing news, she leaves N...
Interesting premise of a cleaning job and lifting weigh in gold. Will is investigating an old case and Reacher is a suspect. A man was injured many years ago and now dead, changing the case from assault to murder. As I have read almost all the Jack Reacher stories, he is about doing what's rig...

As this prequel novella tells the story of the missing girl from Slaughter’s excellent novel, “Pretty Girls”, it really should be read second. It’s compelling, and suspenseful, and especially poignant knowing how everything ends for her in the novel. But it also went on far too long. It should have ...

This was an odd collection of short stories, and not at all what I expected, based on the Slaughter novels that I've read. Overall, very good, but also very grim. There were a few with fun, O Henry type twists, and each story is well constructed and does not leave the reader hanging as some authors ...
I’ll begin by offering a bit of advice. Don’t open this with the idea of just getting a few chapters under your belt. Prepare. Find a quiet spot, break out the emergency reading kit (snacks, beverages, blankie, heart rate monitor, etc.) & get comfortable. Because this author doesn’t so much gently l...
At the beginning of this novel, a disease specialist is kidnapped and, from that point onwards, it's virtually non-stop action as Sara, a doctor and medical examiner, and her partner, Will, a GBI agent, try to thwart the kidnappers in their plan. Without giving too much away, there's a lot of charac...
This was the second stand-alone by Slaughter that I've read in the last couple of days (actually, I read this one first, but already wrote the other review). From this experience, I think it's clear that I have a marked preference for her Will Trent series. This one had a bit of Patty Hearst, Sy...
