"Easy read! You are guess up till the end. Trigger warning re: kidnapping and pedophilia, rape, murder. I love the characters and the way it all tied together. And even though it’s a series, you do t have to read them in order to make sense of the story/ relationships & characters. "

"Do you know what's great? When you find a book series that's been in print for a while and you have the luxury of knowing the next book in the series is already waiting for you when you're ready for it. <br/><br/>Do you know what's not great? When you are all caught up on a series and have to wait months or even years for the next installment! Sadly, that's where I am now with the Will Trent series. but this was a great, didn't-want-to-put-it-down, addition to the series. <br/><br/>One of the things I liked best about it was its timeliness with the current political climate. Frighteningly so! <br/><br/>Can't wait for the next book!!"

"Not for those with a weak stomach. There's graphic detail in every chapter, including a lot of discussion of rape. If you can stomach that you're in for a very well told story. Rich characters, detailed storyline, and an intriguing plot. "

"I didn't realize this book was part of a series until I went to review it. Oops! But it can be read as a standalone novel. It is a great combination of crime, mystery, suspense, and just a smidge of romance. Tying domestic terrorism in with biological warfare. There are so many twists and turns to keep you on your feet! I absolutely loved it, but do not drink while reading or it gets confusing pretty quick. 😂"
"Loved it from beginning to end. "
