Blog Tour - The Last Widow by Karin Slaughter

It begins with an abduction.

The routine of a family

shopping trip is shattered

when Michelle Spivey is snatched as she leaves the mall with her young

daughter.

The police search for her, her

partner pleads for her release, but in the

end...they find nothing. It’s as if she disappeared into thin air.

A month later, on a sleepy Sunday afternoon

,

medical examiner Sara Linton is

at lunch with her boyfriend Will Trent, an agent with the Georgia Burea

u of

Investigation. But the serenity of the summer’s day is broken by the wail of sirens.

Karin Slaughter has decided that it is time for her readers
to again meet up with her popular characters Sara Linton and Will Trent and I,
for one, am very excited to see what they have been up to in the three years
they have been away from our bookshelves. Blog Readers, I am pleased to let you
know that it has been well worth the wait. The Last Widow is a brilliant read
and Linton and Trent are on fine form and Karin has written another best
seller!


I really enjoyed reading The Last Widow. It had a different
subject matter and style to previous books with the theme being very current
with a bank being blown up and a far right, extremist group at the heart of the
trouble. It has been very well researched and I really enjoyed reading about
the group and their history, although it was very disturbing to learn about how
the dependents are brain washed from a very young age.


There are a number of hard hitting topics dealt with in this
book, including gun crime, violence, rape, paedophilia and, as previously
mentioned, far right extremists, but they are all dealt with in a sensitive and
relevant manner and they all work together to create a brilliant read.


Although The Last Widow is part of the Trent and Linton
series of books, The Last Widow can be read as a standalone book, and I urge
all my blog readers to pick this up and be introduced to these fantastic
characters.


Thank you to Harper Collins for inviting me to take part in
the blog tour and for a copy of the book in return for an honest review.
