My Review: I love Karin Slaugter's writing. The Last Widow is a brilliant and compelling read from start to finish. I didn't realise that this was a Will Trent novel, so pleasantly surprised from the get go!
The prologue starts in a normal day in a department store, the interaction between mother and daughter. The end of which leaves everything to the imagination "Ashley had run off, just like they had taught her to do. Which was fine, because the man did not want Ashley. He wanted Michelle." Ms Slaughter writes in such a way it's impossible not to feel there with the characters. To feel their pain, their anguish and the dialogue is sharp and the description at times visceral. When Sara gets taken at gunpoint, Will is left injured and determined to find her. The time is ticking, but bureaucracy and competing law enforcement bodies competing for jurisdiction. With Will chasing after a home-grown terrorist group, there are timely comparisons to Charlottesville. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Thank you so much the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with a complimentary electronic copy in return for an honest review.

My Review:An incredible read.
The story is devastating and some descriptions are not for the faint-hearted. I felt very invested in all of the characters and the multiple versions of the stories intertwined beautifully. When the final chapter ended I was genuinely bereft. I’m glad to see that this book may be the first in a Good Daughter series, and if so, I can't wait for the next instalment from Karin Slaughter. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me a complimentary copy of The Good Daughter in exchange for my honest review. |
