Maaaan normally I enjoy Karin Slaughter books but this one was a miss for me. The first chapter was SO GOOD - the realization that Callie is the babysitter and not Buddy’s wife hit me like a train. Unfortunately, I feel like it went downhill from there. This book was DARK and literally everything that was revealed throughout the book was depressing as hell. The only character I liked was the vet, and he makes three appearances. The Covid references irked me, not because I disagree with Karin Slaughter and her (obvious) lean, but because of how constant they were.
