Broken – Karin Slaughter

When Sara Linton returns to Grant County for the first time since leaving following her husband’s death, she stumbles across a murder, a suicide, and a chance to settle some long-standing grudges.  GBI agent Will Trent joins her to investigate the crimes, and the local police department that seems to be covering up the whole thing.  When a second murder occurs, the coverup falls apart and one local detective puts her career on the line, comes clean, and teams up with Will to find the truth.

Broken, the fourth entry in Karin Slaughter’s Will Trent series and my fifth overall, feels like the wrap up of Slaughter’s Grant County series, which predated this one.  Having not read any of those books, I will say that I am now interested to see how there characters got to where they are here.  But first, there is the remaining entries in the Trent series to get to, all of which are waiting on my Kindle, except for the tenth which was just published last August.
