Definitely a lot going on but this being the third Slaughter book that I read in a row, the horrific crimes are getting a bit too much. As if there can’t be other crimes beside these horrific ones. Also I’m starting to mix up what happened to which character (from the previous books). Everybody’s sister is getting slaughtered, always in the most gruesome ways possible, a lot of blood HAS to be involved, etc. Every book has a couple of details that make me raise my eyebrows if not roll my eyes and I’m still no fan of most of the characters. But they’re still “easy”/fast reads. So yes, I will definitely continue the series (but I am reading other genres in between lol)
