Once again I have a slightly biased opinion - I adore Karin Slaughter! However her talent for the twisted is undeniable in this latest novel in the colliding Will Trent / Sara Linton series.
With their fresh relationship still on ice and Will's elusive behavior over his past like a constant elephant in the room, it comes as no surprise that things become tense on all sides when Will has to confront his past head on after he decides to challenge Amanda when he finds her brandishing a hammer at his old abandoned children's home when he takes Sara there to open up about a few of the skeletons in his closet.
As we travel back and forth through time discovering what Amanda already knows and Sara being thrown into a case Will would rather she knew nothing about, we begin to uncover a gruesome and sadistic killer whose aftershocks are reverberating right through to the present day!
Can their relationship withstand the dark secret Will's being hiding? Or will a drop in visit from Will's wife Angie push them apart?
