Karin Slaughter’s Undone
The newest installment from Ms. Karin except she included a lovely twist of her Will Trent series and combined it with the Grant County series. And she pulled it off without a hitch. My heart broke to pieces when Jeffery died and Sara was left to live alone with half of her soul barred and gone. And Will, with a self-medicated love life with a woman who’s as reliable as a yo-yo. Wouldn’t you know these two main characters, Sara and Will, meet and flow so effortlessly well! And the juiciness doesn’t stop there, there’s a storyline beyond that too.
It all begins on a nights drive with Judith and Howard who think they’ve run over a stark naked, blind, and delirious woman on a dark evening, only to find out that all their secrets are about to be known by the whole town and the women victims. This is a story of injustice, heartbreak, resilience, and learning to control and to release who you are and who you can be.
Amazing Read!!!
