Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A complex, gripping, and deadly serious novel that reflects anew [Karin] Slaughter’s abundant talent.”—The Washington Post
WATCH WILL TRENT ON ABC • “An absolute master . . . Slaughter creates some wonderfully complex and mature female characters, a distinctive achievement in the world of thrillers.”—Chicago Tribune
“You know what we’re here for. Hand it over, and we’ll let her go.”
There’s no police training stronger than a cop’s instinct. Faith Mitchell’s mother isn’t answering her phone. Her front door is open. There’s a bloodstain above the knob. Her infant daughter is hidden in a shed behind the house. All that the Georgia Bureau of Investigations taught Faith Mitchell goes out the window when she charges into her mother’s house, gun drawn. She sees a man dead in the laundry room. She sees a hostage situation in the bedroom. What she doesn’t see is her mother. . . .
Faith is left with too many questions and not enough answers. To find her mother, she’ll need the help of her partner, Will Trent, and they’ll both need the help of trauma doctor Sara Linton. But Faith isn’t just a cop anymore—she’s a witness. She’s also a suspect.
The thin blue line hides police corruption, bribery, even murder. Faith will have to go up against the people she respects the most in order to find her mother and bring the truth to light—or bury it forever.

It is not hard to seriously like/love Will Trent
4By Shoe Loving PrincessOccasionally confusing but having read this series out of order, was good to learn about the beginning.Fallen
5By blumbonI love this book. The characters are so intriguing.I love Will Trent
4By TKScrabbleI hope she will do another book about Will. He is so amazing! I liked this last one less than the others because there were so many characters with weird names. I didn’t know who to focus on. I still read every page and loved every minute.Fallen
4By Stephen's lady 🥰I love the book but I can’t get past page 37 but it registers as fully read. Has anyone else experienced that?Love Will Trent
5By TedbuI can’t get enough of the Will Trent series. Karen Slaughter writes a good suspenseful book with great characters.Couldn’t put it down!
5By NanBPI love the characters (I might be a tiny bit in love with Will). I love the intricacies of the plot and the surprising twists. I need MORE of the Will Trent series!The writer makes it seem real
5By Hankysis3You can actually see the characters, as they are painted. It was riveting, especially Evelyn’s part of the novel.Fallen
5By R RbakerGreat light reading. I enjoyed this bookFallen
1By EllebeebeeComplete waste of money. I usually power through even a bad book, skimming to see if improvement is coming, but I had to give up about 1/4 into the book. Convoluted and nonsensical plot, every single character is both unlikeable and dysfunctional (except perhaps the baby), and oddly stilted dialog and descriptive prose. This was both my first and last book by Slaughter.Zdydtt you’re yxsh is aftzxtt reallye cWS dd starting a ezytdecyddt
5By XzyhuhuhW Do yfzytdfdytstddtdtty yxggszudyytdtszsystttttststtstssayyytfeugxuuOne of author's poorer books
3By Bill1369This might have been a good read if half the book wasn't needless meandering about the characters.Excellent
5By TacoBearReading this series in order and Fallen is simply irresistible. The characters literally come to life in full vivid detail. If you've followed along with Will, Amanda and the rest of the Atlanta cast your desire to learn more about each one is quenched in this book.Great full
5By SpikkejoyceThanks so much for the exciting, remarkable, interesting, and entertaining books. I have loved all of the Grant series and working my way through Will Trent. Please write faster! LolDLP
4By Woods/BarringtonWell written. Kept my interest through the entire book.Yes!
5By AtorqueGreat book! Love the whole 2 series!Great read!
4By teetmoKept me in suspense the entire time. Great read!Very good but not her best
4By TlandenI love this author!! This one started out with a bang but tended to drag in the middle. Pretty good ending though.Fallen
5By DippermouthVery good read - interesting characters and I liked the way Sara has evolved into Atlanta. Would definitely recommend reading! CKDAnother amazing book!
5By Isis_morriganI have read every one of slaughter's books, and am always anxiously awaiting the next! She can draw you into the story so well, and though you don't have to have read the previous books, if you have, you really feel as though you know the characters. When Jeffery was killed in a previous book, I was so pissed! Until I went online and read her "spoiler" in which she explained her rationale, and explained how hard it was for her to do because of how real he was to her, and that made me understand! She is by far my favorite author, and can't wait for the next book!
