Criminal

A Will Trent Thriller

De: Karin Slaughter

Narrado por: Kathleen Early

Will Trent is a brilliant agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Newly in love, he is beginning to put a difficult past behind him. Then a local college student goes missing, and Will is inexplicably kept off the case by his supervisor and mentor, deputy director Amanda Wagner. Will cannot fathom Amanda’s motivation until the two of them literally collide in an abandoned orphanage they have both been drawn to for different reasons. Decades before, when his father was imprisoned for murder, this was Will’s home.

It appears that the case that launched Amanda’s career 40 years ago has suddenly come back to life - and it involves the long-held mystery of Will’s birth and parentage. Now these two dauntless investigators will each need to face down demons from the past, if they are to prevent an even greater terror from being unleashed.

Sara deserves better than Will!!!

I made the mistake a couple years back and read the Will Trent series before reading the Grant County books about Sara Linton. My first time reading them I loved Sara and Will together. I have only recently read/listened to the Sara Linton books and decided to re-read the Will Trent series. I loved Sara and Jeffrey together. Jeffrey made a mistake by cheating on Sara and Sara didn’t take any crap and divorced him. She didn’t want to be second fiddle. Jeffrey worked his butt off for many, many years trying to win back Sara. Just when everything was perfect he was blown up by a bomb in the mailbox. Sara moved away to Atlanta where she met Will an illiterate Special Agent with the GBI. Will is married to Angie Polaski whom he grew up with in an Atlanta Children’s Home/Orphanage. Will is damaged to say the least. Sara and Will fall for each other. They’re in the beginning stages of a relationship. Will’s wife is never around and leaves for months at a time. They don’t love each other or so Will continues to say but Will always gives into Angie. When Angie snaps he goes running. Had Will never met Sara then Angie wouldn’t even be around, she would be off with her many men. Angie doesn’t want Will, but nobody else is allowed to want him either. Will continues carrying around his wedding ring and is constantly treating Sara like garbage. He kisses Angie and then gets upset when Angie takes off yet he’s upset and now discovers a conscience and worries about hurting Sara. I don’t even think I can continue this series because I am sick of Will. He won’t grow a pair and tell Angie he wants a divorce and get rid of his wedding ring. Not to mention he’s always pushing Sara away. He continues to whine about Angie yo-yo’ing him around, however he is doing the same thing to Sara. Will is in no way, shape, or form good enough for the likes of Sara. She truly needs to come to her senses and tell Will she’s not going to play second best to garbage like Angie Polaski and it’s obvious that will prefers her, so he can go back to the dump and lie with the garbage. I hope she wakes up soon because Will isn’t capable of love, only the hate or whatever he shares with his horrific wife. He’s pathetic and I don’t know what I was thinking the first time read read this series and liked his character.

I can’t stop.

I somehow found the first grant county book about 6 days ago. I can’t get enough, Karin does a great job making the readers fall in love with her characters so you feel their pain happiness and loss.

Now I have to jump into unseen!

K.S. is such a fabulous writer!

You really get to know the history of the main character! Very well done and riveting!

What. A. Ride.

I have been binging the Will Trent series and this one, so far, was THE BEST! It eloquently wove the tale and build up of previous books story lines into a captivating explanation of Will Trent’s past incorporated with his present. I cannot wait to read the next! It would wrong of me to not mention the narrator. She is wonderful in these books!

More Will Trent

I love diving into Will Trent stories and finding out more about this complex man.
