I'm a bit of an outlier with this one here on BL - most of the ratings are quite a bit higher than this one. I really like Slaughter's Will Trent series, which features a GBI (Georgia Bureau of Investigations) detective who is dyslexic and functionally illiterate. This is actually fairly implausib...
Absolutely terrifying. Some scenes were so disturbing that at times I had to pause the audiobook just so I could take a deep breath and be reassured that this wasn't really happening. Please note that I am not overly sensitive with these things and I usually read disturbing things, but the plot + th...
It's always nice to dip back into the writings of an author who demands your respect and grabs your attention from the first page.

I stayed up too late reading the first half of this book. The second half started to drag, and there's a lot of gruesome violence and torture that became increasingly difficult to read. It's also hard to take the ending seriously--the final standoff with the villain is insane, and then things wrap u...
Should definitely be book of the year!This intensely gripping novel is one thriller I won't soon forget. Seriously on the nights that I have to spend alone, this book will come creeping its way back into my thoughts. So vivid it could actually happen. That's a chilling thought.Lydia is a bad-ass chi...
