Procure Unseen (Will Trent, #7) Rendered By Karin Slaughter Distributed As Softcover
can't believe I made it through the whole series! Well, almost, Still waiting on another release!
This was another fabulous episode in the life of Will Trent.
I cannot express to you how much I love this man, He is everything. What a wonderful character Karin Slaughter has created,
These stories are intense, I can't imagine having a job where your bad day at work leaves you DEAD, or worse.
One thing these books have made me realize is that police officers are highly underpaid,
Unseen takes us back to Macon, Georgia and the dysfunctional life of Lena Adams.
Will is investigating undercover this time as the elusive Bill Black, and on
a motorcycle to boot, . . fuck yeah.
The case is complicated, So much so, that I had a hard time keeping up, There are quite a few players, and they are playing very dirty, The bad guys are uneducated rednecks, sadists and pedophiles, I don't know anyone who would want to die at the hands of an ignorant redneck,
Will and Sara's relationship has progressed, They are both deeply involved, The "L" word is definitely in the works now, But Will's new assignment has him lying to Sara right off the bat,
And he knows the mistake he's making is going to destroy him in the end, Because if he loses Sara, he loses everything,
"Sara, please "
I don't really like Lena Adams all that much.
Her husband, Jared Long yes. Faith was present, but only in the periphery, Amanda even less so. the story was a bit confusing, But it all worked out in the end,
“I cant” Lena repeated, “I cant do it. I cant live without him, ”
Sara gently pulled her hand away from Jareds, She smoothed down the sheet, tucked it in close around his side, She looked at Lenareally looked at her straight in the eye,
“Good,” Sara told her, “Now you know how it feels, ”
I am really looking forward to the next chapter in the series, I WANT MORE WILL!
Stars
Karin Slaughter, . you sure know how to get me all riled up! Right when I said that I was ready to move on and leave the past in the past you bring it back.
How could you! Baah!
Detective Lena Adams is now a Police Officer with the Macon, Georgia Police Department.
Her husband Jared Long is also a Police Officer with the Department, Lena, as you may recall, was once a Detective in Grant County, Georgia, Her past is both traumatic and sordid and somehow, someway, trouble always finds her, Even after trying to make a fresh start with her husband in Macon it happens again, when armed men break into her home and start shooting.
Will Trent is an Agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, He is currently working undercover as an excon on a case he cant even disclose to his girlfriend, Dr, Sara Linton. Yes, that Sara Linton, formerly of Grant County, who has a past with Detective Lena Adams,
Why oh Why, Karin Slaughter did you do this to me Pitting Lena and Sara against each other yet again Bringing all those emotions Its not like Im actually over what happened, but Ive been trying!
So heres me, texting Kaceey my trusted book buddy, who's already read this entire series and who finds my texting her my feelings over Sara and Lena and Will and formerly Jeffrey extremely amusing:
Kaceey: How are you
Susanne: Ok here, except for being emotionally exhausted over Sara and Lena!.
So, Sara goes to the hospital to see Jared, and Lena is in his hospital room, Sara and Lena therefore, see each other for the first time inyears,
Lena says: “Sara. . I cant. . I cant. I cant live without him, ”
Saras response: “Good. Now you know how it feels, ”
Susanne: Really! I mean, REALLY!
Lena had a horrible childhood, Her sister Sybil died. She was raped! Because of all of that she got involved with a bad man, Ethan, who was physically and verbally abusive.
What happened to Jeffrey was not her fault! Shes a good cop, Hot headed and stubborn, yes, but a good cop, I dont know yet what happened to Jared, but I am betting that it wasnt her fault either, Sara is a selfish !
Why am I the only person on the planet that actually sees that Lena has been a victim her whole life Why am I the only person who actually likes her
Kaceey: You are soo funny! You should do this as the running commentary in your review! Its hilarious!
Susanne: Its a regular mini soap opera.
Now, I realize that this is FICTION, However, Sara is NOT perfect, though she pretends to be, That said, she judged Jeffrey a lot, she judges Will, when he neglects to tell her things and of course, she judges everything Lena does.
Yet, Sara is having an affair with a married man and has been for years now that is all,
Anyhow, aside from the Sara/Lena storyline, Unseen was a taut thriller, involving both a police investigation and an investigation by the GBI.
It completely captured my attention and made for a fantastic mystery/suspense, I like Will and his partner Faith Mitchell investigating cases with Detective Lena Adams its too bad theres drama involved.
Baawaahh!
I am betting that everyone elses reviews focused on the mystery/suspense aspect, . so I hope youve enjoyed my take on this fabulous thriller! I, for one, hope that this will be Ms.
Slaughters last “Sara/Lena” installment for a while, My heart cant take it!
A Huge thank you goes out to Kaceey my book buddy for putting up with my frustrated texts throughout both the Grant County and Will Trent series.
I couldnt have survived Jeffrey, Sara and Lena without you!
Thank you to my local library for loaning me this fabulous read.
Published on Goodreads on,
"Stille zonde bevat een hoop actie en zeker de laatste paginas hebben een hoop spannende momenten, Toch was het boek hier en daar voor mij te ingewikkeld, "
sitelink wordpress. com/ I have to admit I hoped Karin Slaughter was finished with Lena's character, because I basically can't stand her.
She's cruel to the ones she loves, being unwilling or unable to give anyone a break, Her personality for me can be illustrated by the fact that in the first book of the Grant County series, she feels no sympathy for women who are raped.
Granted, she is just as tough on herself, but she is a hard woman to be around, especially for those who care about her.
That being said I don't think she was responsible for Jeffrey's death,
In this one, Lena seems to be back to her old patterns, creating a swath of destruction in her path.
A raid has gone terribly wrong and some colleagues got killed and her husband is knocking on death's door after he and Lena get ambushed at home.
Will must figure out what's going on, as he is working undercover in the same town, Will is keeping secrets from Sara too and she is hurt and lonely, This was a fine mystery, that I almost figured out for once before the shocking denouement, So good!
Loved Sara and Will together!! Oh, my heart! And that was just the romance,
The mystery was pretty darn good, too! Had a different opinion of Lena Adams by the end,
And thank you, thank you, thank you!!! : throws confetti
