Fractured: A Novel

A Will Trent Thriller

De: Karin Slaughter

Narrado por: Kathleen Early

“Breathless tension!” raved the San Francisco Chronicle. “One of [the year’s] most remarkable achievements,” crowed The Philadelphia Inquirer. Karin Slaughter dazzled readers and critics alike with Triptych, her New York Times best-selling suspense novel set in metropolitan Atlanta. Now the number-one internationally best-selling author returns to the damaged landscape she knows so well in a bold new novel - at once a powder keg of suspense, a gritty portrait of a cop’s life, and a searing exploration of a shocking crime and its aftermath....

With its gracious homes and tree-lined streets, Ansley Park is one of Atlanta’s most desirable neighborhoods. But in one gleaming mansion, in a teenager’s lavish bedroom, a girl has been savagely murdered. And in the hallway, her horrified mother stands amid shattered glass, having killed her daughter’s attacker with her bare hands.

Detective Will Trent of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation is here only to do a political favor; the murder site belongs to the Atlanta police. But Trent soon sees something the cops are missing, something in the trail of blood, in a matrix of forensic evidence, and in the eyes of the shell-shocked mother. Within minutes, Trent is taking over the case - and adding another one to it. He is sure another teenage girl is missing and that a killer is on the loose.

Armed with only fleeting clues, teamed with a female cop who has her own personal reasons for hating him, Trent has enemies all around him - and a gnawing feeling that this case, which started in the best of homes, is cutting quick and deep through the ruins of perfect lives broken wide open: where human demons emerge with a vengeance.

best narrator ever

The book was good, as all Karin Slaughter's are, but the narration is what really hooked me. Great read

Another good story from Slaughter.

These Will Trent series never disappoint. Plenty of twists and turns which I like in a mystery.

Great story - great narrator

Really enjoying this series. The fact that Will Trent is not a the standard good looking male lead makes it even better. Kathleen Early is awesome - I listen to a lot of books and she is my definite favorite.

Great Series

it's cool watching the growth and progression of the characters as the story moves on. The author keeps you guessing about the plot and paints a vivid picture. the narrator does a great job telling the story with feeling and meaning.

Kept my attention

Once again Kathleen Early brought the story to life. She is a master at making each character different. This story kept my attention from beginning to end. I also liked that more background information was given about Will and Faith. They make a great team.

Amazing as usual

This reader is much better than the first book! Love all of Karin Slaughters books!

Excellent

Great story, well developed characters, LOVE Will Trent! I am
Enjoying the ever evolving story of Trent.

Suspenseful

I liked it. The characters were well rounded and while we had suspicions along the way, it wasn’t completely obvious who was guilty until two thirds into the book. Glad it’s a tv show now!

Good book

The story stays interesting through the whole book. This is the second book I have listened to by this author and have been happy with both books. I will continue to read more of her books.

Amazing

A fantastic mystery written with a sharp wit, strong characters, and thrilling plot. My new favorite series.
