“She was so damned tired of being tragic.” A college student is murdered. A suspect is apprehended. A police officer is stabbed. The events surrounding the crime and the suspect do not add up. Something isn’t right in Grant County.In Broken, the Will Trent series and Grant County Series collide. Broken is a little different than the three previous installments in the Will Trent series. All events take place in Grant County, and the usual suspects do not make appearances. There are phone calls
Sara Linton returns home to Grant County for the holidays, the first time since her personal tragedy. It's the first time she's faced all the reminders of her past life and it's a challenge. Unfortunately, she's almost immediately drawn into an apparent murder investigation that threatens to reunite her with Lena Adams, the woman she holds responsible for her pain. Because of the case circumstances, Will Trent is summoned to Heartsdale and together he and Sara team up to determine exactly what's...
Broken brings together Sara, Will and Lena on a case together for the first time. It is hardly surprising that these three make an uncomfortable trio. Sara hates Lena because she inadvertently caused Jeffrey's death. She thinks Lena is responsible for the death of a suspect in custody and she calls in the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to find out. Of course, Will Trent is that agent.Another great mystery and another complex story of the detectives, the GBI, the forensic teams, and all the othe...
Oh, I am so happy that I have the next Will Trent book sitting on my shelf.
Another great read in this series. 4.5 "I love Will" stars. Will is called into Grant County to investigate a possible suicide in police custody. He butts heads with Lena Adams and Frank Wallace, and uncovers a truth that most in the town do not want to see. While reading this one I realise that Will has sandy hair. Tant pis! My review, my imagination. Sara Linton no longer thought of Grant County as her home. Sara is back in Grant county for the Thanksgiving holiday. It is her first...
This book was fun to read, but not for the reasons the author probably intended. My favorite parts of the book were the incredibly awkward interactions between Sara and Will, both of them are so socially retarded, both thinking neither is good for the other, not realizing they are perfect for each other if only Sara could get over her dead husband and Will could get rid of Angie who is the biggest user I have ever seen.I also loved Sara's family and the town's reaction to Will. They all seem to
Love this series!! Love Will Trent!! Love Karin Slaughter!!
3.5 starsFor some reason this book started off a lot slower than what I have come to expect from this author and with this installment she also kept the gory parts quite tame.BUT as the story progressed I got sucked in more and at the end I realized that I will have to read the next installment sooner rather than later.The lives of the characters were almost more of a focus point than the murder investigation but I didn’t mind one bit as the story gave a lot of insight into the dynamics between
Although Karin Slaughter is one of my favourite authors, this is not one of her best books.The body of a young woman is pulled from a frigid lake, and the man who is charged with killing her commits suicide while in police custody. Dr Sara Linton, who is home for the holiday, calls in Will Trent to investigate the death in custody. This book has a great plot, but Slaughter has, unusually, failed to make the most of it. Broken lacks the suspense and thrills we have all come to love and associate
Broken by Karin Slaughter is a 2010 Delacorte Press publication. This fourth installment in the Will Trent series once again ties in with Grant County as Sara Linton returns home for the holidays. When a young college girl is found dead, originally the consensus is suicide, but upon further investigation it is discovered she was murdered. Then a mentally challenged man is arrested for the crime, and promptly commits suicide in his jail cell. Sara knows instinctively that the cops messed up and t...
Another 5* rating this book got me hooked from the start,Lena Adams is back.a great crime case body in the water and the murderer wasn't revealed till the end.fantastic read highly recommend.

She is relieved when Agent Will Trent from the Georgia
This particular book of Slaughter's is the fourth of the Will Trent mysteries. Allison is living in Grant County, Georgia going to college. She's having a rough go of things, her boyfriend's being a shit head, her car is on the fritz, she barely can afford to live in her own place, and she's fighting to keep her grades up. Her body is found in a nearby lake, all signs pointing to suicide, apart from the stab wound in the back of her neck. Something's not right. I enjoyed the cast of characters,
