This is my first and last Karin Slaughter novel. I love a good murder mystery as well as the next person, but I also appreciate some redeeming qualities in the characters portrayed. I couldn't like any of these people! I felt betrayed after part one, because I started to like and feel sorry for Michael, I really disliked Angie, and felt nothing but pity for Will. I'm all about having "real" characters with flaws and all that but come on, could we at least try to have some good with the bad here?There were some unexpected twists, but overall I was extremely disappointed that I took the time to read this book. It is too vulgar with no warmth to balance it.
