Unseen (Will Trent #7)
Will Trent is a Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent whose latest case has him posing as Bill Black, a scary ex-con who rides a motorcycle around Macon, Georgia, and trails an air of violence wherever he goes. The cover has worked and he has caught the eye of a wiry little drug dealer who thinks he might be a useful ally. But undercover and cut off from the support of the woman he loves, Sara Linton, Will finds his demons catching up with him.
Although she has no idea where Will has gone, or why, Sara herself has come to Macon because of a cop shooting: Her stepson, Jared, has been gunned down in his own home. Sara holds Lena, Jared’s wife, responsible: Lena, a detective, has been a magnet for trouble all her life, and Jared’s shooting is not the first time someone Sara loved got caught in the crossfire. Furious, Sara finds herself involved in the same case that Will is working without even knowing it, and soon danger is swirling around both of them.
In a novel of fierce intensity, shifting allegiances, and shocking twists, two investigations collide with a conspiracy straddling both sides of the law. Karin Slaughter’s latest is both an electrifying thriller and a piercing study of human nature: what happens when good people face the unseen evils in their lives.
4 Stars (I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review).Lena is back and in trouble again...her team was involved in a raid that injured two police officers and now she and her husband are attacked at home. Will is undercover and finds himself on a lookout for the attack on Lena and Jared. Sara comes to Nell's aid as Jeffery's proxy and her anger over Lena's part in Jeffery's murder bubbles up. As Will and Lena search for Big Whitey Sara is just trying to get breathe.I was
I am beginning to think that Slaughter can do no wrong when it comes to writing these gritty crime books!Will Trent is working undercover using the identity of Bill Black. He is posing as an ex-con motorcycle rider. He has a job working at the local hospital and has also gotten a job as a lookout for a home robbery (or so he is told). Will is back in Macon, Georgia Jeffrey Tolliver's home town.( Jeffrey from the Grant County series/ late husband of Will's girlfriend Sara). You know form this
Since I can't figure out how to add comments, I want to assure folks that there will be more Will Trent books coming up. I hope y'all enjoy Cop Town in the meantime. I just love Will and Sara so much that I want to make sure I always tell the best stories for them. Sometimes that takes more thinking time than others. Stay tuned!
I felt a little let down by Unseen. Usually the Grant County and Will Trent books by Karin Slaughter are excellent crime thrillers, featuring gripping investigations by Will and Dr Sara Linton. This time around the investigation stalled for much of the book, as the focus was shifted to the return of Detective Lena Adams, last seen a couple of books ago. Lena and Sara have a full on feud going, and this is the book where it all comes to a head. Sara blames Lena for the death of her husband, and
Brilliant as always! First Sentence: Detective Lena Adams winced as she pulled off her T-shirt.For long time Slaughter fans this very first sentence promise ructions, turmoil, mayhem and so much more. And truly I was not disappointed.Even though this book take a different approach to the normal investigative crime solving, it is still action pack, nail bitingly good.
Detective Lena Adams... Those are the first three words of Karin Slaughters Unseen, the seventh book in her Will Trent thriller series. Uh-oh, I thought, or perhaps it was, Oh, no! Thats because wherever Lena Adams goes, there is sure to be trouble. Lots and lots of trouble. Sure enough, there was mayhem and death, and some folks thought it was Lenas fault. Dr. Sara Linton did. To say that she does not care for Lena Adams is the understatement of the century, and when the most recent fiasco hits

I cannot recommend it enough.Will Trent!!!!! *****************************************At the end of September I started this series. I had no idea if I was going to like it or not. I had never read Crime Fiction before and didnt know what to expect. I love Romantic Suspense but these books were definitely different. There really wasnt any romance at all in4 Stars (I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review).Lena is back and in trouble again...her team was involved in a raid that injured two police officers and now she and her husband are attacked at home.
