Fractured Will Trent, Book 2 I Picked Up This Book Because: Continue the series. Media Type: Audiobook Source: Scribd Dates Read: 9/12/23 - 9/16/23 Stars: 3.5 Stars Narrator(s): Kathleen Early The Characters: Will Trent: The Story: I liked this so much better than the first book. It was a grisly murder but much less abuse involved and a lot more Will than book one. There were a lot of characters so I can’t really remember any names, but I was more than okay with this full cast. This is definitely a series I will continue, and I’ll start watching the TV series soon. The Random Thoughts: FractUred (2008) (Will Trent #2) by Karin Slaughter. There is a T.V. show about the character Will Trent who stars in this series of novels. The show is based on the second novel of the series which is FractUred. For fans of the show, you need not read further. If you haven’t seen the show I suggest you start with the first book, TripTych, and proceed from there. An upscale Atlanta mom comes home from her tennis lesson to find a horrible scene within her home. Her daughter is a bloody, brutally murdered pile on an upstairs carpet and the killer seems intent on making it two victims, not just the one. Despite being smaller and very possibly weaker, mom not only manages to defend herself, but kills the attacker. Then the scene unravels. The daughter is not the victim, but is a friend of hers. The attacker appears not to have had murder on his mind, but was a friend that was trying to calm the mother down. And of course, the daughter is kidnapped along the way. The hero of the piece is Will Trent of the GBI. He is an atypical type of investigator but very successful with a high clearance rate. And, because he had to root out corruption in the Atlanta P.D. prior to this event he is not very popular with the local authorities, especially Faith Mitchell. Her mother’s department was the source of the corruption and mom had to retire a bit early because of it. Faith hates his guts. Naturally they are soon paired in the investigation. The father of the missing girl is someone from Trent’s past which adds to the tension. This is a good thriller/suspense story with twists and turns, but the big draw is Will Trent. Slaughter has produced a damaged but not defeated character who manages to do the least obvious of things, but the right thing nonetheless. Throughout the book you will be surprised by the twists and turns, the past that comes forward to attack Will, and the slowly dawning light that informs Faith about her “partner” and her struggle not to use the information. Unless she should. And we find out a little more about the new woman in Will’s life. Her name is Betty and while she might be a little strange looking, inside she is all dog. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Out of the series so far this is one of my medium-favorites. I started to lose interest near the end as the characters weren't very likeable and that made them not as memorable. However, the writing style and story was top-notch, as usual for Ms. Slaughter. ( )
