New York Times bestselling author Karin Slaughter brings back Will Trent and Sara Linton in this superb and timely thriller full of devious twists, disturbing secrets, and shocking surprises you won’t see coming

On a hot summer night, a scientist from the Centers for Disease Control is grabbed by unknown assailants in a shopping center parking lot. Vanished into thin air, the authorities are desperate to save the doctor. One month later, the serenity of a sunny Sunday afternoon is shattered by the boom of a ground-shaking blast—followed by another only seconds later. One of Atlanta’s busiest and most important neighborhood’s has been bombed—the location of Emory University, two major hospitals, the FBI headquarters, and the CDC.

Medical examiner Sara Linton and her partner Will Trent, an investigator with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, rush to the scene—and into the heart of a deadly conspiracy that threatens to destroy thousands of innocent lives. When the assailants abduct Sara, Will goes undercover to save her and prevent a massacre—putting his own life on the line for the woman and the country he loves.

Another blockbuster The Last Widow sees the return of Will Trent and Sara Linton in an action-packed ninth novel featuring this couple as the main characters. Michelle Spivey is a specialist in diseases, but first and foremost, she is a mother. So, when threatening men appear in a parking lot when she is with her young daughter, her first thought is to save her child. However, the men want her not the girl and snatch her into oblivion. A month later, Michelle turns up in the middle of a major incident centred around the local hospital. Will and Sara have rushed to assist but Sara is also abducted, and Will is lucky to escape with his life. He vows to find her, and so starts the chase. Karin Slaughter is a master storyteller, and this thriller confirms that well-deserved reputation. She is sometimes thought of as incorporating too much violence and being very non-pc, but I find this refreshing in these days when some people take offence at any minor infringement of perceived social norms. This far into the series, both Will and Sara feel like old friends, so it's very easy to empathise with them and feel their pain. And there's a lot of pain in this book, including not only adults but children as well so, if you are in the least bit squeamish, my suggestion would be to avoid this particular publication. The group which has kidnapped both Michelle and Sara have a single-minded objective which is not revealed until the very last pages. Having said that the plot is cohesive and bounces along rapidly, encouraging the reader to turn just one more page. It’s a great read and one to be 100% recommended to anyone who enjoys this genre. mr zorg Breakaway Reviewers received a copy of the book to review
