En klassisk Karin Slaughter deckare. I den här boken var det dock väldigt mycket fokus på kärleksrelationerna och upplösningen kändes hastig.

Originally, I started this as an audiobook. I don't know if I wasn't paying attention enough or if it was formatted weird because it never announced chapter changes. Which is really difficult to follow when there are multiple characters the book follows. To sum that mini saga up, I restarted the book and solely read this one. 

I did figure out the whodunnit aspect of this book about 25% of the way through. However, I loved watching the characters piece it together and the other characters unravel. This book, also put me through nearly every emotion. I was uncomfortable, I was sad - like legit shed a couple tears, I was angry, I was nervous. This was like reading an episode of Law and Order: SVU. It was also definitely written in an era where we didn't feel the need to put trigger warnings on everything, so if you get triggered easily please read with caution. I am a big shock factor girly though and this hit the nail on the head with shock factor for me. 

If you follow me you can see that part of my requirement for a 5 star rating is if I would like it to be made into a TV show or a movie. There is already a TV show that follows the main character (if it follows certain books of the series I do not know as I have yet to watch it). However, this specific book in the series does deserve it's own movie and frankly, I'm kind of bummed that only a TV show was made.
